| 摘要 |
<p>The present invention relates generally to the field of optical communications and particularly to optical communication techniques which compensate for dispersion such as that in optical fibers. Compensation of optical dispersion is achieved with a polarisation beam splitter with first, second and third ports, a dispersion compensation fiber, a first return means that changes the mode of polarisation of a returned signal and a second return means. One end of the dispersion compensation means is connected to the third port of the polarisation beam splitter, the other end is connected to the first return means. The second return means is connected with the second port of the polarisation beam splitter, while the first port of the polarisation beam splitter forms input and output. As the signal passes through the disperion compensating fiber four times, the length of the dispersion compensating fiber can be greatly reduced. <IMAGE></p> |
