Abstract :
Time-polarization interleaving 40-Gbit/s RZ-DQPSK with 100-ps symbol-slot is received with integrated equipment designed for 10-Gsymbol/s DPSK detection without polarization demultiplexing. BER comparison with other 40 Gbit/s equivalent modulation formats is experimentally investigated in back-to-back configuration.
