Abstract :
Simulation results are presented for intensity-modulated, direct-detection fiber optic communication systems using multilevel signaling. Specifically, we investigate the potential of 4-ary amplitude shift keying and compare the performance to simulated results for both binary and duobinary signaling schemes
