Abstract
In this paper, the multilevel modulation format, Polarization multiplexed differential quadrature phase-shift keying has been investigated by means of numerical simulations. The performance of transmission of 112 Gb/s dual carrier PolMux NRZ-DQPSK is compared with that of dual carrier PolMux RZ-DQPSK systems over 20 km of standard single mode fiber with respect to changes in state of polarization. It is observed that PolMux NRZ-DQPSK systems gives an improvement of 1.25 dB in OSNR for BER is 10−3 than PolMux RZ-DQPSK system and the frequency spectrum of PolMux NRZ-DQPSK signal is much narrower than PolMux RZ-DQPSK signal at the receiver side. Also, proposed PolMux NRZ-DQPSK system gives better results for compensation of chromatic dispersion and enhanced equalization phase noise than PolMux RZ-DQPSK communication system..
