最近在DWDM光链路中建立的10/40 Gbps技术预示着一个带宽丰富的新时代,以响应通过互联网提供的服务的爆炸性增长。前向纠错(FEC)是这一期待已久的成就的关键要素之一。从无线世界中借用,FEC最初被引入波分复用(WDM)光学系统中,以对抗放大自发辐射(ASE),这是光放大器(OA)中固有的一种噪声形式。这些第一代FEC系统已经与大约6dB的编码增益相关联。然而,随着传输速率逐渐向10 Gbps扩展,其他光学损伤也变得越来越重要,主要是非线性(NL)效应,但也包括色散(CD)和偏振模色散(PMD)。FEC在减轻这些损害方面也是非常宝贵的
The recent establishment of the 10/40 Gbps technology in DWDM optical links heralds a new era of bandwidth abundance, in response to an explosive growth of services provided through the Internet. Forward error correction (FEC) is one of the key-enabling elements in this long-awaited achievement. Borrowed from the wireless world, FEC was initially introduced in wavelength-division multiplex (WDM) optical-systems to combat amplified spontaneous emission (ASE), a form of noise native in optical amplifiers (OAs). These first generation FEC systems have been associated with a coding-gain of approximately 6 dB. However, as transmission rates gradually scaled towards 10 Gbps, other optical-impairments gained in significance, primarily nonlinear (NL) effects but also chromatic-dispersion (CD) and polarization mode dispersion (PMD). FEC turned out to be invaluable in mitigating these impairments as well
