Abstract
In this paper, the performance of a 32 channel SOA-based dense wavelength division multiplexing system at 10 GB/s data rate with channel spacing of 50 GHz in terms of quality factor, BER, output optical power, and eye closure is investigated. Transmission over fiber optical link of different lengths at low signal input powers is demonstrated. The communication over fiber optical link is evaluated up to 215 km transmission distance at −35 dBm input signal power. It is also found that the signal can be transmitted effectively up to 241 and 260 km for −30 dBm and −25 dBm signal input power, respectively.
