On the Impact of Gas-Line Absorption in Long-Haul C+L-Band Hollow-Core Fibre Transmission
Zelin Gan, Eric Sillekens, Jiaqian Yang +5
We numerically investigate gas-line absorption in hollow-core fibre C+L-band transmission. Results show limited C-band but severe L-band performance degradation. Ideal suppression…
423.7 + 426.5 Tb/s GMI Bi-Directional HCF Transmission
Jiaqian Yang, Romulo Aparecido, Eric Sillekens +28
We demonstrate OESCL-band same-wavelength bi-directional transmission over 60 km HCF with 42.5 THz bandwidth, achieving GMIs comparable with the highest unidirectional SMF data-rat…
Ultra-Wideband Transmission Systems From an Energy Perspective: Which Band is Next?
Ronit Sohanpal, Mindaugus Jarmolovicius, Jiaqian Yang +9
Measuring the power efficiency of the state-of-the-art OESCL-band amplifiers, we show that 1000 km OESCL-band systems can achieve 2.98x greater throughput for +48% higher energy-pe…
Single-Step Digital Backpropagation for O-band Coherent Transmission Systems
Romulo Aparecido, Jiaqian Yang, Ronit Sohanpal +11
We demonstrate digital backpropagation-based compensation of fibre nonlinearities in the near-zero dispersion regime of the O-band. Single-step DBP effectively mitigates self-phase…
A Closed-form Expression of the Gaussian Noise Model Supporting O-Band Transmission
Zelin Gan, Henrique Buglia, Romulo Aparecido +6
We present a novel closed-form model for nonlinear interference (NLI) estimation in low-dispersion O-band transmission systems. The formulation incorporates the four-wave mixing (F…
On the Feasibility of SCL-Band Transmission over G.654.E-Compliant Long-Haul Fibre Links
Jiaqian Yang, Eric Sillekens, Ronit Sohanpal +10
We demonstrate the first SCL-band long-haul transmission using G.654.E-compliant fibre, achieving 100.8 Tb/s (GMI) over 1552 km, despite its 1520 nm cutoff wavelength. Due to the f…
