title = "Experimental and theoretical investigation of M-array pulse amplitude modulation transmission for reach extension",
abstract = "We present here the M-array modulation scheme that enables transmission of higher data rates at the same spectral bandwidth. The results indicate that the M-array technique can be implemented. This scheme leads to a significant narrowing of the optical spectrum which, in turn, enables a significant extension of dispersion-limited links.",

note = "Funding Information: Dan Sadot received his B.Sc., M.Sc., and Ph.D. (Summa Cum Laude) from the Ben Gurion University of the Negev, Beer Sheva, Israel, in electrical and computer engineering in 1988, 1990, and 1994, respectively. During 1994–1995, he was a postdoctorate associate in the Optical Communication Research Laboratory at the Department of Electrical Engineering of Stanford University. His Ph.D. studies were supported by the Clore scholarship, and his post-doctorate was supported by both the Fulbright and the Rothchild scholarships. At Stanford University, he was involved in the STARNET broadband coherent optical network project. In 1995, he joined the Ben Gurion University in the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department as a senior lecturer, and in 2001 he was appointed as associate professor, where he is leading a new research program in optical fiber communications. In 1996 he was appointed the founder and chair of the IEEE/LEOS chapter in Israel, and during 2000–2001 he was appointed the department head of communications systems engineering at Ben Gurion University. Professor Sadot{\textquoteright}s current activities include dynamic WDM networks, tunable lasers and filters, optical burst/packet switching, optical CDMA, optical encryption in fiber communications, and electronic compensation schemes for impairments in optical fiber communications.",
