Suppose the following situation:
OCh1:
Pin = -4dBm
Max Interchannel crosstalk at Rx = -40dBc
Tx OSNR (InBand) = 35 dB/0.1nm
Min Rx OSNR = 12 dB/0.1nm @ -20 dBm
OCh2:
Pin = 0dBm
Max Interchannel crosstalk at Rx = -40dBc
Tx OSNR (In-Band) = 40 dB/0.1nm
Tx OSNR (Out-of-Band) = 35 dB/0.1nm
How can I estimate the effect of the linear crosstalk of OCh2 over OCh1 in a coherent multichannel system?
Thanks in advance!
