Digital non-linear equalization for flexible capacity ultradense WDM channels for metro core networking

We experimentally demonstrate that digital non-linear equalization allows for using independent tunable DFB lasers spaced at 12.5 GHz for ultradense WDM PM-QPSK flexible capacity channels for metro core networking.
