摘要
In the early 1980s, optical communication emerged as a possible means of practical communication. However, there were many bottlenecks and short-comings. There was no optical amplifier at that time. Every node or repeater used to have reamplificaton, reshaping, and retiming (3R) regeneration, and all the processing was done in the electrical domain. The separation between two adjacent repeaters was well within 20 km. The early trends of optical communication until the end of 1980s are shown in Table 1, which were very different from today's mainstream optical communication. © 2014 IEEE.
