Abstract

In this paper, an overview of promising solutions for multi-level modulation formats, primarily based on phase shift keying (PSK), in optical WDM-transmission is presented and some recent results are summarized. With PSK modulation the option of multi-level signalling is offered which means that more than one bit is mapped on one transmitted symbol and thus offering bandwidth reduction for increased spectral efficiency. We investigate the performance with respect to receiver sensitivity, non-linear fibre impairments, chromatic and polarization mode dispersion. Last but not least the implementation-effort at high speed must comply with economic constraints.
