摘要:
An optical fiber tape having low polarization mode dispersion characteristics and applied to a dense wavelength multiplex (DWDM) transmission system of a transmission rate from several Gb/s to several tens of Gb/S. We have found out that the polarization mode dispersion of an optical fiber tape relates to the loss tangent (tanδ) determined when the dynamic viscoelasticity is measured, and that particularly, if the loss tangent of when a dispersion shift fiber is used is made 0.080 or more and the loss tangent of when a single mode optical fiber is used is made 0.042 or more, the polarization mode coefficient of dispersion (PMD) is reduced to 0.3 ps/{square root}km preferable to realize a DWDM transmission system.
