The temporal spreading of light pulses in an optical fiber can impose a limit on the highest data rate transmitted by a fiber optic communication system.
The basic principles for use sf dispersion compensating fibers (DCF) are reviewed, including definition of figure of merit and condition for dispersion slope compensation.
We have for the first time to our knowledge demonstrated a single mode dispersion compensating fiber with low PMD, low loss and high Raman gain.
A dispersion compensating fibre with very high negative dispersion and low attenuation resulting in a record high figure of merit of 459 ps/(nm dB) has been developed.
The authors experimentally demonstrate dynamic optimisation of dispersion in a nonlinear lightwave system using an electrically tunable, power efficient dispersion compensating fibre Bragg grating

Abstract: A 1xN interferometer based router with single-stage all-pass filters in the arms has low loss, flat passbands and low crosstalk; however, we show that the router has substantial cubic dis

We report on a novel optical single sideband-orthogonal frequency division multiplexing system for access and metro networks based on a single, low cost dual electro-absorption modulated laser.
We present an investigation of dispersion map optimization for-span single channel 28 GBaud QPSK transmission systems with phase-sensitive amplifiers (PSAs).
