ABSTRACT:
A dispersion transformer for limiting the data rate of an optical fiber transmission system. A transmission optical fiber, which connects a transmitter and a receiver, may have a bandwidth much greater than that necessary to transmit a desired predetermined maximum data rate. The transmitted signal is connected to wavelength disperser means which spatially separates the different wavelength components of the transmitted signal. Each wavelength component is then propagated with a different delay by optical fiber delay means. The wavelength component which propagates with the least delay through the transmission optical fiber is subjected to the least induced delay in the optical fiber delay means and that which propagates with the greatest delay through the transmission optical fiber is subjected to the greatest induced delay in optical fiber delay means, the remaining components being subjected to intermediate delays. The delayed wavelength components are combined to form a series of broadened optical pulses.
