2.5 Gb/s CPFSK coherent multichannel transmission experiment for high capacity trunk line system

A 2.5-Gb/s CPFSK four-channel FDM transmission experiment has been conducted with a 150-km-long nondispersion-shifted fiber. This system employed a wideband channel space controller, a common polarization control, and a channel identification function. These were indispensable for realizing a high-capacity, coherent FDM trunk line system. The results of the experiment confirm the feasibility of trunk line systems with over 160-Gb/s capacity.<
