ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a method and system that compensate end-to-end optical dispersion for a fiber-optic cable having a plurality of predetermined compensations sites to within a predetermined dispersion limit using a predetermined dispersion compensation increment. With the method and system, the predetermined dispersion compensation increment may exceed both the predetermined compensation limit as well as the compensation limit divided by the number of sites. The method includes the steps of compensating optical dispersion using the compensation increment for each of the plurality of predetermined compensation sites to yield an end-to-end optical dispersion compensation within the predetermined optical dispersion limit. This may include optical dispersion over-compensation at some sites and optical dispersion under-compensation at other sites.
