Abstract
An analytical tool based on the moment generating function of the receiver decision variable that can evaluate the impact of multiple in-band crosstalk signals in DP-QPSK (Dual-Polarization Quadrature Phase-Shift Keying) signals is presented. It is shown that when the number of interferers increases from 1 to 64 the crosstalk level, that assure a 2dB power penalty, becomes more stringent, -12 dB for the single interferer scenario and -15 dB for 64 interferers. The Gaussian approximation is also used for comparison purposes.
