Demonstration of Negative Dispersion Fibers for DWDM Metropolitan Area Networks
Abstract
In this paper, we present a detailed experimental and theoretical study, showing that a novel nonzero dispersion-shifted fiber with negative dispersion enhances the capabilities of metropolitan area optical systems, while at the same time, reducing the system cost by eliminating the need of dispersion compensation. The performance of this dispersion-optimized fiber was studied using different types of optical transmitters for both 1310- and …
