Summary form only given. Dispersion management (DM) techniques to periodically compensate for fiber chromatic dispersion, /spl beta//sub 2/, has been shown to be a useful strategy for increasing the capacity of optical communication systems. We show that optimal propagation conditions can be obtained by simultaneously minimizing nonlinear distortion on single pulses and nonlinear interactions among the pulses.

Abstract
Summary form only given. Dispersion management (DM) techniques to periodically compensate for fiber chromatic dispersion, /spl beta//sub 2/, has been shown to be a useful strategy for increasing the capacity of optical communication systems. We show that optimal propagation conditions can be obtained by simultaneously minimizing nonlinear distortion on single pulses and nonlinear interactions among the pulses. As a result, a 40 Gbit/s soliton signal can be transmitted over a record distance of 1300 km in a link encompassing step-index fibers, with 100 km amplifier spacing and GVD compensation by gratings. Theoretically, minimization of nonlinear distortion can be obtained by analyzing the pulse bandwidth variation along the link.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
