Abstract
Relative impact of multiple-path interference (MPI) and amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) noise on optical receiver performance was discussed. The relative impact of beat noise due to MPI and ASE on an optically preamplified receiver for 10 Gb/s data with both non-return-to-zero (NRZ) and return-to-zero (RZ) transmission format was measured. Results showed that the relative weighting for RZ was ∼1.56 and NRZ was ∼1.89, showing that RZ was more tolerant to MPI than NRZ.
