Abstract
We compare three different differential quadrature phase-shift keying (DQPSK) transmitters: One with parallel Mach-Zehnder modulators (MZM), one with a MZM and a phase modulator (PM) in series and a new one with a single PM. Although they all generate optical DQPSK signals, it turns out that their performance differs with respect to bit error probabilities, chromatic dispersion and nonlinearity tolerance for nonrectangular impulse shaping.
