Abstract

In this paper, we have investigated dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) system for fiber non linearity effects based on sixteen bidirectional optical add/drop multiplexers (B-OADMs). To perform bidirectional transmission, circulator is used in BOADM. Semiconductor Optical Amplifier (SOA) is employed with each OADM to boost up the signals to longer distance. A length of 100 Km distance of dispersion compensating fiber (DCF) is inserted between each B-OADM to achieve 1500 Km total distance of the proposed network. Four channels with frequency 193.1THz at 50GHz spacing are used to transmit data at various data rates i.e. 2.5, 5 and 10 Gbps. Various performance parameters such as for different data rates to investigate the system performance in the term of BER and Q factor and output power in 2D and 3D graphical representation..
