Richardson Low-latency WDM intensity-modulation and direct-detection transmission over >100km distances in a hollow core fiber Laser & Photonics Reviews https://doi.org/10.1002/lpor.202100102 This dataset contains: Data supporting the following figures: Figure 1. Comparisons of CD and bandwidth amongst SSMF, NZ-DSF and NANF for 1.400-1.625 µm. (a) CD values versus wavelength (the symbols show experimentally measured values); and (b) numerically calculated fibers’ 3-dB bandwidths versus wavelength over a length of 5 km and 100 km. Figure 2. Comparisons of CD-induced power fading versus frequency and fiber bandwidth versus reach amongst SSMF, NZ-DSF and NANF at 1550 nm. CD-induced power fading over frequencies after a length of (a) 5 km and (b) 100 km, and (c) fiber 3-dB bandwidth versus length of fiber. Figure 4. (a) BER versus distance of 4×50-Gb/s OOK WDM transmission. Figure 5. (a) BER versus distance of 4×50-Gb/s PAM4 WDM transmission, and (b) BER versus distance of 4×100-Gb/s PAM4 WDM transmission. Figure 6. Comparisons of latency in propagation amongst the SSMF, NZ-DSF and NANF. (a) within a single-loop transmission and (b) up to 50-loop transmission.
