Popis: | Optical fiber is generally believed to have a wide band but the step type or some of the graded-type fibers have a narrow band and hence a narrow-band code is necessary for high bit rate transmission or a long repeater interval. In the system with signal-dependent noise, such as the optical fiber communication system, the optimum code levels of a multilevel code are spaced unequally when the average light power is prescribed. In this paper three types of codes — the duobinary code typical of a narrow-band transmission code, the extended duobinary code with three unequally spaced decision levels, and the conventional binary code — are compared with respect to the maximum transmission distance. Also, the difference of maximum transmission distances of duobinary code and binary code is calculated with the fiber bandwidth as a parameter and the range in which the duobinary code and extended duobinary code are advantageous over the binary code is clarified. As an example, when the oscillation wavelength=0.85 μm, the fiber bandwidth=100 MHz · km, length-dependent parameter of fiber=0.7, BER=10−9 and bit rate=200 Mbps, maximum transmission distances of duobinary code are about 1.8 times and about 2 times that of the binary code, respectively. |
