Filtering effects in a spectrum-sliced WDM system using SOA-based noise reduction

We present an experimental investigation into the effects of receiver filtering on the intensity noise in a spectrum-sliced incoherent light system incorporating semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) based noise reduction. Spectral filtering of the SOA output degrades the signal quality, reducing th...
