Abstract
This paper proposes a system design that integrates CO-OFDM with WDM to reach a data rate of 400 Gbits/s over 1000 Km Single Mode Fiber (SMF). The 400 Gbits/s signal is generated by multiplexing eight OFDM with 50 Gbits/s for each OFDM. We present the performance of CO- OFDM WDM back to back design by measuring the BER and the OSNR (Optical Signal to Noise Ratio) and the constellation diagram of each user. We will also show the performance of CO-OFDM WDM for 1000 Km SMF by measuring the BER and the OSNR of different WDM channels and studying the constellation diagram of each user.
