An optical transmission system having optical fibres having dispersion of alternate sign greater, in absolute value, than 1 ps/(nm km) arranged in an optical path in accordance with a dispersion map appropriate for the transmission of DM solitons at a wavelength λc. The system has a transmission station and a receiver station connected to the optical path. The transmission station launches on the optical path at least a first optical pulse RZ. At least one phase conjugation device is located along the optical path to invent the spectrum of at least the first pulse.
