Abstract

We experimentally evaluate the Rayleigh Back-Scattering power penalty in a single-fiber single-wavelength bidirectional link using coherent digital subcarrier-based transceivers and verify a theoretical model in this scenario. A negligible penalty is achieved by using subcarrier-interleaving.
