Abstract :
The results of a WDM experiment involving the transmission of three video channels using AM-VSB modulation on each of three lasers in the 800¿900 nm range are presented. A weighted video signal/noise ratio greater than 40 dB was achieved at each wavelength for a laser modulation index of 0.3 over a 1.1 km link.
