Abstract
Very high capacity long-haul optical communication systems can be designed by using erbium-doped fiber amplifiers, wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) and dispersion-shifted fiber. The use of dispersion-shifted fiber allows higher bit-rates, but enhances the efficiency of four-wave mixing (FWM) wave generation by reducing the phase-mismatch naturally provided by the fiber dispersion [l], thus causing FWM to become the dominant nonlinear effect [2].
