Abstract :
Simulations show orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) with optical single sideband modulation can adaptively compensate for dispersion in 4000-km 32×10Gbps WDM SMF links with 40% spectral efficiency. OFDM requires no reverse feedback path so can compensate rapid plant variations.
