Abstract :
In the above paper we did not accurately evaluate the Q-factors given in Table I. We give in the present table the corrected values. Captions of figures 11, 12, 13 and 15 must be changed using these new values: in the caption of Fig. 11 Qin t 4.81, Qout = 11.61 and Qout t = 3.18; in the caption of Fig. 12 Qout = 9.71 and Qout t = 1.85; in the caption of Fig. 13 Qout = 6.01 and Qout t 4.64; in the caption of Fig. 15 Qout = 5.86 and Qout t = 2.11. In the text, the best Q-factor increase in the lossly case of 4.72 dB obtained at 10 Gbit/s.
