Power Penalty From Amplified Spontaneous Emission in Spatial Diversity Links for Fade Mitigation
We investigate the power penalty caused by excess amplified spontaneous emission in an optically preamplified receiver for a communications link where a multiwavelength spatial diversity transmitter is used to mitigate atmospheric fading. We compare measured receiver sensitivity for a four-wavelengt...
