Abstract

The effect of dispersion on a spectrum-sliced wavelength division multi-plexed system with an optical preamplifier receiver is investigated using a theoretical model based on the statistics to improve understanding of spectrum slicing in a realistic situation, where dispersion significantly impacts the signal in transmission. The results show that the optically preamplified receiver delivers increased transmission capacity and a substantially improved power budget compared to a pin receiver. The results are obtained using the saddlepoint approximation and compared to the customary Gaussian approximation, which is formed to be reasonably accurate in predicting the optimum bandwidth but conservative in sensitivity predictions.
