Abstract:We implement full-field digital back-propagation with a 1-THz receiver using 20 synchronous frequency-adjacent coherent receivers with digital stitching and a frequency-comb local oscillator. Relative to electronic dispersion compensation, per-channel DBP and full-field DBP achieve throughput gains of 2.2\% and 5.4\%, respectively.
Abstract:We demonstrate OESCL-band same-wavelength bi-directional transmission over 60 km HCF with 42.5 THz bandwidth, achieving GMIs comparable with the highest unidirectional SMF data-rates in both directions, with an aggregate of 423.7 + 426.5 Tb/s.
