<p>We  provide  a  detailed  analysis  of  direct  detection  lightwave  systems  employing  an  optical  preamplifier  at  the  receiver  and derive  the  closed  form  expression  for  the  bit  error  probability  of  WDM  systems  emvloying  on-off  keying  (OOK)  as  modulation  format.  In  our  analysis,  we  consider  various  cases  in  which  the  receiver  model  uses  either  a  finite-time  integrator  or  Fabry-Perot  filter  operating  in  a  sinfgle  channel  or  multi-channel  environment.  We  take  into  account  the  optical  amplifier  noise,  the  postdetection  receiver  noise,  the  shot  noise,  and  the  effect  of  the  nonzero  laser  linewidth.
