Abstract :
All-optical pre-compensation of nonlinear distortion of polarization-multiplexed 80 Gb/s RZDPSK signals by pre-distortion and fibre loop phase-conjugation is evaluated experimentally. The impact of inter-polarization nonlinearity on the bit-error rate improvement for a 728 km dispersion-managed link employing a direct detection receiver is shown.
