The analysis of IRBUS channel allocation for decrease four-wave mixing in DWDM system

Abstract

This paper presents a new model of optical channel allocation named "IRBUS" for improving the operation of a DWDM light source multiplexing by not have to use an optical filter in the DWDM de-multiplexer device. By our method can reduce transmission loss in case of the number of channels are plentiful and each of the channels is nearby that be found in Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) Systems. The transmission loss is called "Four-Wave Mixing (FWM)" caused by the nonlinearity of the optical fiber signal. The results of numerical computation shown that the IRBUS model can decrease average FWM efficiency from -12.03dBm to -28.27dBm indicated that the remains FWM value are less than other methods and can also reduce the BER probabilities from - 5dBm to -19.75 dBm. © 2013 SPIE.
