Abstract

In the past decades optical fibers have become the main medium through which information is transmitted. Unlike most other forms of communications, the mechanism that puts an ultimate limit on the achievable data transmission rates in fibers is the optical nonlinearity, and hence its modeling is of utmost importance to the advancement of the field. The talk will review the ways in which nonlinear optical mechanisms affect the performance of modern communications systems, and present approaches for managing the nonlinear phenomena, as well as to the communications limits that can be expected in their presence.
