  • Abstract
    A 20 Gbit/s subcarrier multiplexed (SCM) optical transmission system is presented. To date, this represents the highest aggregate bit rate SCM transmission that has been demonstrated. Results show that the bit error rate (BER) is less than 10-12 for a link loss of 29.5 dB, which corresponds to 118 km single mode fibre (SMF). Furthermore, excellent performance is demonstrated after transmission over 82 km of dispersion compensated SMF. Results suggest that the system can support transmission over multiple spans of optical fibre
