Self–Phase Modulation, Cross–Phase Modulation and Four–Wave Mixing Are the Root Cause of the Nonlinear Effects in Optical Fiber

Dr. Brijesh. N. Chawda, A. Swamy

Abstract :

Change in the refractive index of the medium with optical intensity and inelastic- scattering phenomenon leads to non-linear effects like self-phase modulation, cross-phase modulation and four-wave mixing which in turn affect fiber telecom system performance adversely and proper fiber system design reduces these nonlinear effects.
