Basic Limitations To The Signal To Noise Ratio In Fiber Systems

Yariv, Amnon

Abstract

The need for long-haul transmission of analog and digital data in an increasing number of applications is focusing attention on a number of fundamental noise mechanisms which limit the performance of even ideal systems. The talk will consider the basic physics as well as the system implications of a number of these cases including self heterodyning noise in optical amplifier systems and conversion of phase to intensity fluctuations in fibers.
