Abstract :
Maximum transmission distance for a 10 Gbit/s signal over non-dispersion shifted fibre using mid-span spectral inversion is mainly limited by additional chirp of the output spectral inverted signal introduced by the spectral invertor and by the conversion efficiency of the spectral invertor. By optimising such a system, the maximum transmission distance is limited to <3000 km for a <5 dB (at BER=10-9) power penalty or 1 dB eye closure
