ABSTRACT:
Chromatic dispersion in a high speed CS-RZ WDM transmission system is reduced by providing tailored “precompensation” for individual and/or groups of optical signals. Such precompensation is achieved by passing the optical signals through a dispersion compensating elements, such as dispersion compensating fiber, within an optical multiplexer, i.e., prior to multiplexing the signals onto a single optical fiber. Additional dispersion compensation can be performed in optical amplifiers and within an optical demultiplexer downstream from the optical multiplexer.
