Abstract

Several experiments were performed to examine the feasibility of advanced very-high-speed optical communication systems. 10 Gb/s with 160-km spacing was successfully demonstrated using erbium-doped fiber amplifiers. Coherent communication and optical fiber soliton systems were also tested, and the basic characteristics clarified for a multigigabit-per-second system. By considering these transmission characteristics, the line codes for these systems were studied in order to achieve system flexibility for future advanced systems. The basic unit and advanced units for very-high-speed optical terminators were proposed in accordance with the standard network node interface employing the synchronous transfer mode
