This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.
Power fluctuations among the longitudinal modes of laser diodes cause noise in the received signal after being filtered by a wavelength-dependent attenuation mechanism. We have developed a theoretical model to characterise this noise and studied degradation in lightwave system performance. Power penalties observed in a 432 Mbit/s wavelength division multiplexing system experiment agreed with theoretical predictions.
