Degradation Improvement in BER Due to Various Sources of Noise in Optical Transceivers

.Abstract
The quality of digital communications whether at radio or optical frequencies depends primarily on the Bit Error Rate (BER). Reducing the BER improves the communication system behavior. At optical frequencies the digital signal is subjected to various types of noise that tends to degrade the BER. This paper describes the dependence of BER on noise and how these effects can be encountered by using longer wavelengths (1.5-1.6 um) at different bit rates.
