Abstract :
With a view to high capacity optical transmission over transoceanic distances, a wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) technique with an NRZ format and solitons has been intensively studied. Here the authors demonstrate that a 40 Gbit/s WDM (10 Gbit/s×4 unequally spaced channels) soliton data signal can be successfully transmitted over 10000 km using in-line synchronous modulation and narrow band optical filtering
