摘要
A method is provided for determining the system performance of an optical transmission system that supports an optical signal having a plurality of channels. The method begins by selecting a set of parameters defining characteristics of the transmission system. Exemplary parameters include, for example, the system's length, bit rate, the number of amplifiers and channels employed, and the wavelengths of the channels and their respective power levels. The method continues by determining a baseline value of the system performance that accounts for fiber loss, optical amplifier gain and noise, and system gain equalization. Next, a first penalty to the baseline system performance is determined. The first penalty arises from a nonlinear interaction between the optical signal and amplified spontaneous emission. A second penalty to the baseline system performance is then determined. The second penalty arises from self-phase modulation and cross-phase modulation. Finally, the first and second penalties are subtracted from the baseline system performance to obtain a value of system performance for the transmission system.
