Abstract
With the widespread deployment of DWDM, facilitated by the availability of directly optical amplification using EDFA’s, optical data transmission has in recent years become a largely analog endeavour, with digital “signal processing” functions such as (de)multiplexing of data tributaries and signal integrity verification restricted to electronic equipment at link end-points or in logical layer nodes.
