Observing the Effects of Legacy 10G on 100G Channels in Dispersion Managed Optical Systems
arXiv:1901.03373
Abstract
We show that 10G channels generate both amplitude and phase noise on 100G channels. Amplitude noise can be managed as the ASE and NLI noise, while the DSP robustness to the phase noise sets the guard-band.
