title: Bi-directional transmission of 8x10Gb/s DPSK signals over 80km of SMF-28 Fiber using in-line semiconductor optical amplifier.
abstract: We report the bi-directional transmission of 8x10Gb/s signals using an in-line SOA over 80km SMF-28 with matching DCF for the first time. Our results suggest very promising applications for bi-directional transmission in metro and access networks with simple configuration and low cost.
