Analysis of intrachannel impairments in differential phase-shift keying transmission systems.
The evolution of the phase in a return-to-zero differential phase-shift keying system is studied by the generalized momentum method. The results show that phase fluctuation in the case of dispersion-managed solitons is much smaller than that in quasi-linear systems for a given launch power.
