Abstract:
We present a novel reference-based OSA measurement approach for in-band OSNR measurements of polarization-multiplexed signals, such as 28GBd polarizationdivision multiplexing quadrature phase shift keyed (PDM-QPSK) signals. Accurate OSNR measurements of 100G signals transmitted in a 1000 km link are presented.
