Abstract :
In this paper we investigate four-wave mixing (FWM) in non-zero dispersion shifted fiber (NZ DSF). Theoretical background and experimental results are presented. We study the impact of the channel separation on FWM efficiency. We present a method of simultaneous chromatic dispersion and fiber nonlinear coefficient measurement based on FWM efficiency dependence on channel spacing.
