Abstract (EN): The theory of nonlinear systems based on frequency domain analysis using Volterra series is shown to provide an appropriate means of assessing laser distortion which includes the effects of laser resonance. Hence, it is an appropriate and tractable means of assessing the performance of optical subcarrier multiplexed (SCM) systems. Based on this analysis the performance of SCM systems is examined, with calculation of the carrier-to-intermodulation ratio for an eight-channel SCM system providing an illustrative example.
