Nonlinear Frequency-Division Multiplexing in the Focusing Regime
arXiv:1611.00235 · doi:10.1364/OFC.2017.Tu3D.1
Abstract
Achievable rates of the nonlinear frequency-division multiplexing (NFDM) and wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) subject to the same power and bandwidth constraints are computed as a function of transmit power in the standard single-mode fiber. NFDM achieves higher rates than WDM.
