(a) BER as a function of received OSNR (0.1 nm resolution bandwidth) for a single channel with a roll-off factor of 0.1%. (b) Required OSNR to achieve a BER of 1.5·10−2 as a function of the RRC filter roll-off factor for a single channel system. (c) Required OSNR to achieve a BER of 1.5·10−2 as a function of both the RRC filter roll-off factor and the channel spacing, for the central channel, in the 7-channel WDM system.
