<p>Dispersion compensation over a plurality of fiber spans includes providing a dispersion compensation module every N spans, where N⊃1. In addition to inline dispersion compensation, dispersion compensation modules may be provided in one or both of a transmitter and a receiver that the plurality of fiber spans connect. The dispersion compensation modules may compensate for different amounts of dispersion. Each inline dispersion compensation module may compensate for more dispersion than a dispersion compensation module in the transmitter or the receiver. Non-uniform dispersion compensation is particularly useful when the transmission is in return-to-zero format.</p> |
