ABSTRACT:
The source includes an electro-absorption modulator receiving a continuous light wave supplied by a laser emitter 10. The characteristic response curve of the modulator has a threshold so that the modulator transmits an optical pulse having a duration which is less than the duration of an electrical control pulse which is applied to the modulator by a control generator. Soliton-type optical pulses obtained in this way are transmitted via a line fiber to a receiver. Application to optical transmission.
