Abstract—

The long haul communication system for higher bit rate can be designed using the dense WDM
technology. Data communication for high speed data transmission requires more bandwidth requirement,
which is an important factor for the communication system. In WDM system, each laser must emit light at a
different wavelength, with all the lasers light multiplexed together onto a single optical fiber. After being
transmitted through a high-bandwidth optical fiber, the combined optical signals must be de-multiplexed at
the receiving end by distributing the total optical power to each output port and then requiring that each
receiver selectively recover only one wavelength by using a tunable optical filter.In this paper by using DCF
the four wave mixing effect is reduced at different value of Q-factor.

Keywords: Dense Wavelength Division multiplexing, four wave mixing, Dispersion compensation fiber,
RZ, EDFA, optisystem14, Bit error Rate (BER).
I.INTRODUCTION
1.1 Introduction to Optical Fiber Communication

Fiber-optic communication is a method of transmitting information from one place to another by sending
pulses of light through an optical fiber. The light forms an electromagnetic carrier wave that is modulated to
carry information .The process of communicating using fiber-optics involves the following basic
steps:Creating the optical signal involving the use of a transmitter, relaying the signal along the fiber,
ensuring that the signal does not become too distorted or weak, receiving the optical signal, and converting it
into an electrical signal. Due to much lower attenuation and interference optical fiber has large advantages
over existing copper wire in long-distance and high-demand applications.

An optical amplifier may be thought of as a laser without an optical cavity, or one in which feedback
from the cavity is suppressed. Stimulated emission in the amplifier's gain medium causes amplification of
incoming light. Optical amplifiers are important in optical communication and laser. The OA has made it
possible to amplify all the wavelengths at once and without optical-electrical-optical (OEO)

conversion. Besides being used on optical links, optical amplifiers also can be used to boost signal
power after multiplexing or before de-multiplexing, both of which can introduce loss into the system.

1.2 Four Wave Mixing

Four wave mixing (FWM) is the important nonlinear effect arises when two or more pulses transmit through
same fiber. FWM is a phenomenon that occurs in the case of DWDM systems in which the wavelength
channel spacing are very close to each other. This effect is generated by the third order distortion that creates
third order harmonics. Hence the name four wave mixing.

Two factors strongly influence the magnitude of the FWM products, referred to as the FWM
efficiency. The first factor is the channel spacing; where the mixing efficiency increases dramatically as the
channel spacing becomes closer. Fiber dispersion is the second factor, and the mixing efficiency is inversely
proportional to the fiberDispersion, being strongest at the zero-dispersion point. In all cases, the FWM
mixing efficiency is expressed in dB, and more negative values are better since they indicate a lower mixing
efficiency.
II.RELATED WORK
A 32 channel DWDM system is designed with a channel spacing of 100 GHz, at the data rate 100Gbps, with
the optimal parameters in both NRZ and RZ modulation format to achieve the maximum transmission
distance. Fiber Bragg Grating and Erbium Doped Fiber Amplifier are the key components for the
implementation of high data rate long haul optical communication system. The maximum transmission
distance that could be achieved is 240 km with NRZ modulation format and RZ modulation format. Fibers
are standard single mode fibers SMF with high group velocity dispersion enable larger repeater spacing and
larger sign on the transmitted signals. Increasing the capacity of optical systems may require either an
increase in the bit rate, usage of WDM or ultimately both. At high bit rates, the modulation format, type of
dispersion compensation scheme, and channel power become important issues for optimum system design.
In particular, it has been demonstrated numerically and experimentally that the conventional non return-to-
zero modulation format is superior compared to the return-to-zero modulation when dealing with large
DWDM systems, as RZ modulation causes Significant Eye Closure Penalty near channels end.

In the receiver side the signal is passed through an WDM demux ,detected by photo detector(PIN) having
dark current 10nA &resposivity 1A/W .Now this electrical signal is passed through Low Pass Bessel filter of
order 4 to remove the noise.Then 3R generator & BER analyzer are used for eye diagram analysis of signal .

The simulation is performed with RZ modulation using Symmetric compensation technique.Optic

system provides multiple simulation engines that provide complementary simulation techniques. This
enables the greatest flexibility in modeling and simulating systems ranging from short-distance data
communication links, to ultra-long-haul DWDM telecom systems, to large metro networks with feedback
paths and EDFA transients due to adding and dropping of channels.Simulation results can be plotted in a
number of forms including signal waveforms, eye diagrams, signal spectra, OSNR, Poincare sphere,
dispersion maps, and more. A wide and complete choice of measurements is available including jitter, eye
opening/closure, electrical/optical spectra, chirp, optical instantaneous phase/frequency and power.

III. CONCLUSION
This chapter provides a summary of the findings of the study which has done so far. Included in the
summary are conclusions from observations made during the execution of this study. The study of following
objectives is reported. The objective of the thesis is, to observe the performance of 10 Gbps optical
communication with the dispersion managed RZ pulse. The RZ pulse is efficient for long-distance, high-bit-
rate, wavelength in division multiplexed (WDM) transmission dispersion-managed systems. The effect of
varying the dispersion parameter of single mode fiber on optical communication system has been noted. It is
observed that with increase in the value of dispersion parameter, there is an increase in the average eye
opening and Q-factor value. Also a good desirable bit error rate value has been achieved and reported.
Timing jitters are reduced with increase in value. The effect of varying duty cycle of the RZ pulse for a fixed
value of dispersion parameter has been performed. It has been shown that by reducing the duty cycle, the
performance of the system is improved. It is concluded that RZ pulse system enhance the performance of
optical communication networks at high bit rate.
