Transmission at 100Gbit/s channel rates can be realized either by serial approach, e.g. on-off-keying ( OOK ) or by differential-phase-shift-keying ( DPSK ), polarization multiplexing or multi-level concepts like differential-quaternary phase-shift keying ( DQPSK ), respectively.
In these modulation methods, the transmission candidates are divided into several channels(10*10G) and wavelength-division –multiplexed transmission system.
Single-channe l transmission is considered to be attractive for longer system lengths, since with single channel transmission a higher spectral efficiency can be achieved thus enabling a more effective use of the transmission line, although the realization of single channel transmission has many technical challenges .
In high-capacity optical transmission systems the cost per transmitted bit per second and kilometer can be reduced by using ultra fast electronic circuits instead of elaborate optical methods.
Transmission experiments based on electrical time division multiplexing ( ETDM ) at 100, 107 and 111 Gb/s were reported recently.
