The spectral characteristics of cross-phase modulation (XPM) in multispan intensity-modulation direct-detection optical systems were investigated both experimentally and theoretically. XPM crosstalk levels and its spectral features were found to be strongly dependent on fiber dispersion and optical signal channel spacing. Interference between XPM-induced crosstalk effects created in different amplified fiber spans is also found to be important to determine the overall frequency response of XPM crosstalk effects |
