Device for regenerating an optical signal and corresponding method

摘要

The device has a linear pulse widening module (34) with a dispersive and linear optical propagation medium. A non-linear optical pulse phase shift module (36) has a non-dispersive and non-linear optical propagation medium to compensate an effect of phase difference between successive pulses on transmission of a signal in an optical fiber. A linear compensation module (38) compensates a widening of the pulses. An independent claim is also included for a method of regenerating a carrier signal.
