Abstract

We have redefined the $\alpha$ -parameter of the extended transmitters in the presence of self-phase modulation (SPM) induced chirp. The $\alpha$ -parameter is effectively lowered to about 1, when the SPM effect with the launching power of 12.5dBm (maximum launching power to avoid stimulated Brillouin scattering(SBS)) is included, compared to the $\alpha$ -parameter of the transmitter algone. The lowered $\alpha$ -parameter has improved the transmission performance significantly regardless the transmitter is operated with positive or negative chirp. The SPM-induced effective $\alpha$ -parameter can be used as a design parameter for the high speed (10 Gbps) transmission systems.

Self-phase modulation (SPM)에 의해 발생한 Chirp에 의해 향상된 전송 특성을 고려하여 송신단에서의 $\alpha$ 계수를 재정의 하였다. $\alpha$ 계수는 stimulated Brillouin scattering(SBS)을 무시할 수 있는 12.5dBm의 광입력으로 인한 SPM 현상이 존재하는 경우 송신기 자체의 $\alpha$ 계수에 비해 약 1 정도 줄어들었다. 이와 같이 $\alpha$ 계수의 감소는 송신기에서 $\alpha$ 계수가 positive던지 negative던지 간에 전송 특성을 향상시킬 수 있다. SPM에 의한 유효 $\alpha$ 계수는 10 Gbps급 초고속 전송 시스템 설계에 중요한 계수가 될 수 있다.
