ABSTRACT:
An optical fiber transmission system using RZ pulses and having emitter means, receiver means, and a transmission line which extends between said emitter means and receiver means, the emitter and receiver means implementing wavelength division multiplexing, the transmission line comprising a plurality of main optical fiber sections presenting dispersion of a given type with dispersion-compensating means being interposed therebetween, the system being characterized in that the dispersion compensation implemented by said means is such that the spectrum width of pulses at the outlet from said means is constant over the length of the transmission line.
