METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR NON-SOLITON TRANSMISSION OF SHORT PULSE SIGNALS VIA AN OPTICAL FIBER

摘要

Short return-to-zero format pulse signals are propagated via an optical fiber network in a non-soliton transmission mode. For suppression of non-linear effects in a transmission line, the short optical pulses are stretched by a dispersion stretching device to duration equal to or shorter than 1/2 bit period of the digital signal, and propagated via the transmission line. The propagated optical signals are compressed by a dispersion compressing device to duration of the initial short optical pulses, and detected for obtaining the transmitted-digital signal in RZ mode.
