Nonlinearity mitigation through optical phase conjugation in a deployed fibre link with full bandwidth utilization

We present a trial of nonlinear impairment mitigation of 16-QAM WDM signals through mid-link optical phase conjugation in transmission over an installed fibre link. Signal bandwidth is efficiently reused, avoiding the typical loss of half the spectral band during phase-conjugation.
