Abstract
A novel superchannel transmission scheme is proposed where an optical comb source is used to carry the multiband signal and one subcarrier is reserved for regeneration as a local oscillator at the receiver end. By combining carrier tracking and carrier expanding, a 4 × 2 Tbit/s superchannel wavelength division multiplexed self-coherent transmission over a 320 km standard single mode fibre has been successfully demonstrated.
