Abstract :
We investigate the return to zero (RZ)-transmission for the optimum system performance taking into account the dispersion, Kerr nonlinearity, attenuation and amplitude spontaneous emission (ASE) noise. Parameters such as bit rate, distance and power levels are estimated for the lowest system degradation
