  • Abstract
    We present an exact analytical probability density function and a closed-form bit-error-rate (BER) formula for wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) networks with homodyne crosstalk from a single dominant channel. The derived crosstalk penalties are in excellent agreement with that obtained from experiments.
