Abstract :
In conclusion, the natural variation of the link chromatic dispersion suppresses the sideband instability in transmission over transoceanic distances without in-line dispersion compensation. A transmission over 9000 km with 50-km amplifier spacing using terminal optical phase conjugation was numerically simulated yielding a Q factor of 12
