We address the problem of characterization of light pulses that propagate in long-haul high-
bit-rate optical communication systems under strongly perturbed conditions. We show that …

A general theory is presented to describe the effects of dispersion fluctuations on optical
pulses propagating inside single-mode fibers modeled as a linear dispersive medium. It is …

We provide accurate analytical estimates of timing-and amplitude-jitter caused by nonlinear
pulse interaction in systems based on highly dispersed optical pulses, both for coherent and …

We experimentally study the linear propagation of optical pulses affected by high-order
dispersion. We use a programmable spectral pulse-shaper that applies a phase that equals …

We present analytical and experimental results to demonstrate the narrowing of pulses
transmitted through optical fibers, with polarization mode dispersion compensated for to first …

We show that the time delay of optical pulses traveling in long fibers is influenced by the
dispersion slope and the fiber nonlinearity. Consequently, one or more new pulses that are …

We analyze intrachannel nonlinear effects in high-bit-rate transmission systems based on
short optical pulses that are dispersion compensated. We perform an analytical study of a …

In this paper a novel technique for obtaining the amplitude and phase of optical pulses with
time extents as short as tens of ps is presented. The method which is based on the transport …

If we are to significantly increase the transmission speed of optical networks, the impact of
higher order dispersion must be clarified. This paper gives general expressions that …

We demonstrate the intensity and phase characterization of picosecond pulses in long-haul
transmission systems by using the direct spectral phase detection method. This method is …
