Abstract
Research on monomode fibre systems has resulted in the development of fibres with very large bandwidths and transmission losses close to the limit set by Rayleigh scatter and IR absorption, as well as semiconductor lasers emitting high powers (> 10 mW). Work on coherent transmission systems has shown that, using lasers with extremely narrow linewidths (< 1 MHz), near quantum noise limited detection is possible. These advantages can only be fully exploited by using all optical systems which do not have the speed and bandwidth limitations of electronic components.
