Transmission limitations in all optical networksPERSON IN CHARGE: Sphicopoulos ThomasFUNDED BY: Ministry of Education START DATE: 01/01/2003 END DATE: 31/12/2005 DESCRIPTION: The continuous increment of the telecom traffic leads to the need of denser optical WDM networks with higher transmission rates. Factors like the noise (ASE) of the optical amplifiers and the nonlinearities pose limitations to these objectives. Intention of the current project is the study of the noise factors and their impacts to the performance of an optical WDM network and the suggestion of possible solutions.
