For this evaluation, we first implemented a highly nonlinear transmission link consisted of 640-km long standard single-mode fiber (SMF) and dispersion-compensating fiber (DCF) modules, and measured the OSNR of eight WDM channels for over 10 hours.  The results showed that the improved polarization-nulling technique could measure the OSNR with accuracy better than \u00b10.5 dB even when we intentionally increased the signal powers incident on the SMF and DCF to 0 dBm\/channel (to invoke large nonlinearities).  We also measured the performance of the improved technique in an ultra long-haul transmission link (~2000 km) by using a re-circulating loop.  Even after the transmission over such a long distance, there was no observable error in the measured OSNR.  The performance of the improved polarization-nulling technique was not affected by PMD as long as the total PMD was less than 60 ps. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>624<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","class_list":["post-107230","press-post","type-press-post","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/ee.presscat.kr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/press-post\/107230","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/ee.presscat.kr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/press-post"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/ee.presscat.kr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/press-post"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/ee.presscat.kr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=107230"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
