ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for transmission of optical signals across an optical transmission link wherein duobinary signals or inverse-data signals are transmitted when the chromatic dispersion of the transmission link is above or below a dispersion threshold, respectively, to significantly improve optical signal transmission performance.
