Multicanonical Modeling of Commercial WDM Optical Communication Systems
ORAL
Abstract
The multicanonical method has been extensively applied to optical and more recently wireless communication systems. Here we outline our recent work on the simulation of electronically compensated polarization multiplexed wavelength-division-multiplexed quadrature phase shift keyed optical communication systems influenced by polarization mode dispersion and fiber nonlinearites. This constitutes to our knowledge the first complete multicanonical analysis of a realistic commercial system.
