  In this paper, the analysis of crosstalk induced by stimulated Raman scattering has been discussed. The expression for SRS induced crosstalk has been observed at different fiber types, such as single mode fiber, DCF, NZDF and NZDSF with the variation of modulation frequency, transmission length and the input power. It has been observed that as an increase in the modulation frequency, the crosstalk decreases.

Introduction</title><p>An optical communication system is used to transfer the information from transmitter to receiver, which is separated by a few kilometres distances. Message is carried by an electromagnetic carrier wave whose frequency can vary from a few megahertz to several hundred terahertz [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.65976-ref1">1</xref>] . Virtually there are only two windows used for broadband communications. The first window is between 100 KHz and 300 GHz, and the second window from 30 THz to 300 THz. Now the demand for bandwidth is increasing enormously, so the second window is used which is optical and has a capacity of 100 Tb/s and beyond. The initial development of optical fiber was for long haul or submarine transmission, but now everywhere optical fibers are used [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.65976-ref2">2</xref>] . Year after year, there is development in the optical fiber that needs some changes which help to enhance the system performance further. Optical networks are divided into optical active network (OAN) and optical passive network (OPN) [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.65976-ref3">3</xref>] . Fiber-to-the-Home (FTTH) is the main focus of telecommunication industry. Direct fiber connection has surplus advantage of large bandwidth and low maintenance cost. However, FTTH can only remain competitive with the help of a passive optical network. SCM is a potential solution for transmission in OPNs [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.65976-ref4">4</xref>] . The combination of SCM and WDM is a feasible method to further increase the transmission capacity in OPNs [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.65976-ref5">5</xref>] . SCM-WDM systems, however, are affected from non-linear effects in fiber. Such non-linearities cause crosstalk among subscribers on different wavelengths. In a dispersive fiber, the dominant fiber nonlinearity that causes crosstalk is cross-phase modulation (XPM). Fiber nonlinearities such as stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) and cross phase modulation (XPM) may generate significant amount of nonlinear crosstalk among adjacent SCM channels since they are very closely spaced [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.65976-ref2">2</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.65976-ref6">6</xref>] . Crosstalk, mainly due to SRS, SBS and XPM, occurs due to nonlinearities of the fiber SRS effect, is more dominant for the frequencies which are adjoining to the transmitted ones [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.65976-ref7">7</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.65976-ref8">8</xref>] . The crosstalk levels obtained to date indicated that crosstalk in SCM-WDM systems could easily reach intolerable levels even with two wavelengths.</p></sec><sec id="s2"><title>2.

Conclusion</title><p>This paper shows SRS induced crosstalk in an optical fiber communication transmission system for different types of optical fibers, modulation frequency and optical power. It also shows in the results that the crosstalk due to SRS increases with increase length of transmission and decreases with the increase in modulation frequency &amp; optical power. By the above results, the optical fiber communication transmission system can reduce the crosstalk by taking appropriate transmission length and using type of fiber. Initially the crosstalk remains high and then it decreases with increase in modulation frequency. Out of four different types of fiber standards, SMF and DCF have minimum SRS and XPM as (−61 to −74), (−46 to −79) in comparison with [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.65976-ref9">9</xref>] and NZDSF has the maximum crosstalk of (−47 to −57). Result also shows that with increase of transmission length, crosstalk produced by SRS also is increased and decreased with the increase in modulation frequency and power. With increase in modulation frequency and transmission length, crosstalk produced by XPM at higher order dispersion is increased. As shown in above results, the optical fiber communication transmission system may improve in a given range of modulation frequency, optical power and length of transmission by selecting the minimum value of crosstalk.</p></sec><sec id="s5"><title>Cite this paper</title><p>Ravi Gupta Manisha, (2016) SRS and XPM Impairments on Different Optical Fibers.
