Abstract :
Soliton transmission of a 20 Gbit/s time/polarisation multiplexed signal over 14 Mm path in a recirculating loop with 46.3 km amplification span has been demonstrated using the sliding-filter soliton control technique. Demultiplexing was achieved by using a polarisation-insensitive electroabsorption modulator
