Abstract
We report the short‐reach transmission of a single channel, which is positively prechirped and externally modulated in NRZ format at 40 Gb/s by an electro‐optical Mach–Zehnder modulator. The signal, amplified by a low‐cost waveguide amplifier, propagates in the normal dispersion regime with near error‐free performance. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
