Balanced differential phase-shift keying detector performance: an analytical study.

A simple explanation of the observed approximately 3 dB advantage of differential phase-shift keying (DPSK) balanced detection over the intensity-modulated directly detected (IM-DD) type detection that can be easily used for system engineering purposes is presented. A Gaussian approximation is used to describe the tails of the detected noisy random signals leading to an analytical explanation of the observed approximately 3 dB advantage of DPSK balanced detection over the IM-DD type detection.

Unidirectional optical pulse propagation equation.

A unidirectional optical pulse propagation equation, derived directly from Maxwell's equations, provides a seamless transition between various nonlinear envelope equations in the literature and the full vector Maxwell's equations. The equation is illustrated in the context of supercontinuum generation in air and is compared to a recent scalar model of Brabec and Krausz. Fully vectorial aspects of the model are illustrated in the context of extreme focusing of a femtosecond pulse.
