OPTICAL FIBER TRANSMISSION LINE FOR WAVELENGTH DIVISION MULTIPLEXING TRANSMISSION SYSTEM

摘要

An optical transmission system for transmitting an optical signal through an optical fiber transmission line includes a first optical fiber transmitting the optical signal and having a first zero-dispersion wavelength shorter than a wavelength of the optical signal, and a second optical fiber transmitting the optical signal from the first optical fiber and having a second zero-dispersion wavelength longer than the wavelength of the optical signal. A first nonlinear effective cross-sectional area of the first optical fiber is larger than a second nonlinear effective cross-sectional area of the second optical fiber.
