Abstract :
Co-channel crosstalk interference with the same wavelength as the signal causes severe system performance degradation in optical networks by competing with the desired signal. While a Gaussian approximation overestimates the performance degradation for a single dominant crosstalk source, the exact noise probability distribution and closed-form error probability are provided
