An apparatus (104) mitigates cross-channel nonlinear distortion of an optical signal (138) carried on one of a plurality of wavelength channels (118) in a wavelength division multiplexed (WDM) transmission system (100). The apparatus includes a first optical receiver (126) which is arranged to detect a measure (134) of aggregate optical power of the plurality of wavelength channels. A nonlinear dispersion compensator includes means (144) for applying a phase modulation to the optical signal in proportion to the measure of aggregate optical power.

Consistent with the present disclosure, chromatic dispersion is introduced into an optical communication path including multiple segments or spans of dispersion shifted fiber (DSF). The chromatic dispersion generates phase mismatching between optical signals propagating along the optical communication path, i.e., the optical signals are decorrelated, such that mixing products are reduced inmagnitude, and the noise attributable to four wave mixing is correspondingly reduced.

摘要:
An optical communication system has a configuration in which an optical transmission line is laid between a repeater (transmitter) and another repeater (receiver). The optical transmission line is formed by fusion-splicing a first optical fiber on the upstream side and a second optical fiber on the downstream side. The first optical fiber has a transmission loss of 0.25 dB or less, and an effective area of 80 μm2 or above (preferably 100 μm2 or above), at a wavelength of 1550 nm, which is the wavelength of signal light. The second optical fiber is connected to the downstream end of the first optical fiber and has positive dispersion regions and negative dispersion regions which are alternately arranged along the longitudinal direction and whose chromatic dispersions at a wavelength of 1550 nm are positive and negative, respectively.

In order to reduce the effects of non-linear phenomena in WDM optical transmission networks, the optical carrier frequencies of the multiplex signals belong to a comb of frequencies that are spectrally spaced apart in irregular manner while nevertheless belonging to a chart of optical frequencies that are spectrally spaced apart in regular manner at a pitch df. These frequencies are selected in such a manner as to enable them to be dropped from the multiplexed signals by N respective periodic optical filtering operations having the same free spectrum interval (Df) equal to M.df, where M is an integer greater than or equal to N, the filtering operations enabling N consecutive frequencies to be dropped from the chart. In addition, the spacing between any pair of frequencies of the comb is different from any integer multiple greater than or equal to 1 of the free spectrum interval (Df).
摘要:
An optical amplifier, or optical repeater, for amplifying wavelength division multiplexed (WDM) light. A first demultiplexer demultiplexes the WDM light into first and second lights corresponding to different wavelengths in the WDM light. First and second optical amplifiers amplify the first and second lights, respectively. A first multiplexer multiplexes the amplified first and second lights into a multiplexed light. A dispersion compensator compensates for dispersion in the multiplexed light. A second demultiplexer demultiplexes the dispersion compensated, multiplexed light into the first and second lights. Third and fourth optical amplifiers amplify the demultiplexed first and second lights, respectively. A second multiplexer multiplexes the amplified first and second lights from the third and fourth optical amplifiers into a WDM light. The optical amplifier can be configured so that the first and second lights travel through the dispersion compensator in opposite directions.

A distributed optical amplifier as such can, for example, be applied in optical transmission systems.
摘要:
In an optical fiber transmission line between two terminal stations, an input side wavelength converter for up-shifting a wavelength of a signal light is inserted at a front part of each of the optical amplifiers and an output side wavelength converter for down-shifting a wavelength of a signal light is inserted at a rear step of the optical amplifiers. Signal lights transmit in a wavelength band shorter or longer than the zero dispersion wavelength of the transmission optical fiber on said transmission optical fibers. The input side wavelength converter converts the wavelength of the signal lights from the transmission optical fibers within the amplifying bandwidth of the optical amplifiers and the output side wavelength converter returns the wavelength of the signal lights optically amplified by the optical amplifiers.
摘要:
The invention is to provide an optical transmission link suitable for a high speed and high bit rate wavelength division multiplex transmission. An optical transmission link 1 is composed of a non-linearity diminishing optical fiber F.sub.1, a dispersion adjusted transmission optical fiber F.sub.2, and an optical fiber F.sub.3 for diminishing and adjusting a dispersion slope. The mode field diameter of the non-linearity diminishing optical fiber F.sub.1 is made into 12 m or more. The dispersion slope is made small to be nearly zero with the mode field diameter of the dispersion adjusted transmission optical fiber F.sub.2 set to 10 m or more, and the dispersion produced at the non-linearity diminishing optical fiber F.sub.3 is adjusted to be small. At the optical fiber F.sub.3 for diminishing and adjusting a dispersion slope, the dispersion slope of the entire optical transmission link 1 is adjusted to nearly zero. The refractive index profile of the fibers F1 and F2 is made into a segment type, and the refractive index profile of the optical fiber F3 for diminishing and adjusting a dispersion slope is made W-shaped. The absolute value of dispersion at any point position in the lengthwise direction of the optical transmission link 1 is made greater than 0.5 ps/nm/km, thereby suppressing the generation of four-wavelength mixture.
摘要:
An optical transmission system in which influences of worsening of the waveform by SPM are canceled by setting an amount of compensation of a dispersion compensator at about 50% of a total amount of dispersion of an optical fiber transmission line so that received waveform is almost not varied, even if light intensity is varied. In the case where a plurality of dispersion compensators are used, the number of compensators is optimized by setting arrangement interval in the neighborhood of a receiving end at a small value. Further, in a transmission line, in which amounts of dispersion of optical fibers have positive and negative fluctuations, the smallest transmission distance of a transmission system is increased by effecting dispersion compensation so that an expected value of the total amount of dispersion of the transmission line is abnormal dispersion.
