摘要
A general formula for the dispersion limit of single-mode-fiber IM/DD (Intensity Modulation /Direct Detection) systems is derived for arbitrary given normalized pulse width P, eye opening penalty X and source linewidth enchancement factor α. From the comparison with published theoretical results, computer simulation and experimental data, its validity and convenience in system design and evaluation are shown. Using this simple and general formula, one can easily obtain the dispersion limit of various fiber types under different working conditions in IM/DD systems.
