ABSTRACT:
WDM optical fiber communications entails bidirectional transmission with at least two WDM channels in opposite transmission directions in a single fiber. As compared with unidirectional transmission, a number of capacity-limiting considerations are relaxed. Operation using in-ground dispersion-shifted fiber permits system capacities of conventional unidirectional WDM.
