Abstract: | This paper performed a 10-Gb/s optical soliton transmission experiment in a sliding frequency recirculating loop and found that the noise in the optical pulse source decreased error-free distance. This is because the mean frequency of soliton at the pulse source is modulated by the noise which results in the increase of timing jitter at the receiver even in a strong sliding frequency controlled soliton transmission line. Jitter in arrival time of transmitted solitons was theoretically analyzed to verify experimental results |
