Abstract
We present a complete physical understanding of the role of self phase modulation (SPM), external phase modulation (EPM) and the sign of dispersion on the second order distortion generated by non-linear propagation in a 1550nm externally modulated analog link. We show that the distortion generated by SPM can be compensated using the proper EPM parameters.
