We discuss the factors which determine the system loss budget - such as power penalties due to the characteristics of laser diodes, receiver sensitivities, and loss and dispersion characteristics of single-mode fibers - in systems with bit rates of 140 Mbit/s, 280 Mbit/s, and 565 Mbit/s. Based on the design examples the system employing DFB-LD will offer a 10-15% longer repeater spacing, compared with the system employing FP-LD. evaluations of characteristics to result from these modifications. This paper describes the results of examinations of characteristics when Distributed Feedback (DFB) LD or Fabry-Perot (FP) LD are used as optical sources, characteristics of the optical receiver, and characteristics of the optical fiber, and also of the basic configuration of the 1.55 μη optical submarine repeatered transmission system at bit rates of the CEPT digital hierarchy less than 1 TI - Studies of Design for 1.55 μm Optical Fiber Submarine Cable Systems JF - Journal of Optical Communications DO - 10.1515/JOC.1986.7.1.2 DA - 1986-03-01 UR - https://www.deepdyve.com/lp/de-gruyter/studies-of-design-for-1-55-m-optical-fiber-submarine-cable-systems-CFrQsEy6y0 SP - 2 VL - 7 IS - 1 DP - DeepDyve ER -
