摘要： An object of the present invention is to realize almost the same transmission characteristic in all wavelengths at a transmission rate of 10 Gb/s or more. An optical transmitter 10 outputs WDM signal light multiplexed with signal light of a plurality of wavelengths toward an optical transmission line 12. The optical transmission line 12 comprises an optical transmission fiber 14, an optical repeating amplifier 16 and a dispersion compensating fiber 18. The gain characteristic of the optical repeating amplifier 16 is set so that the gain becomes the maximum at the effective zero dispersion wavelength of the optical transmission line 12 and that lowers inversely proportional to the distance from the effective zero dispersion wavelength. The whole optical transmission line 12 is set so that the peak power deviation between the effective zero dispersion wavelength &lgr;0 and the wavelength &lgr;1 or &lgr;n on both end becomes approximately 4 dB.

摘要： An optical communication system of a construction wherein the average wavelength dispersion value of the transmission optical fiber used, the optical output intensity of each optical amplifier repeater inserted in the transmission optical fiber and the widths of return-to-zero optical pulses transmitted over the transmission line are determined so as to compensate for the pulse compression effect by the nonlinear optical effect produced on the optical pulses by the pulse spreading effect by the wavelength dispersion effect. An optical multiplexer in the optical transmitting device time-division multiplexes the return-to-zero optical pulses, and the optical multiplexed signal is provided as an alternating-amplitude optical signal with the amplitudes of the return-to-zero optical pulses alternated.

摘要： Detection of an optical pulse position uses an optical pulse string with a determined repetitive ratio and an electric clock signal with a same frequency as the repetitive ratio of the optical pulse string. A phase of the electric clock signal oscillator is shifted and supplied to an optical modulator. The optical modulator modulates the optical pulse string based on the electric clock signal and outputs a modulated optical signal. A photo detector converts the modulated optical signal output from the optical modulator to an electric signal. The phase shift amount of the electric clock signal is controlled to maximize an output from the photo detector. Additionally, a dither signal may be used in the control of the phase shift, more than the optical modulator may be employed, and/or more than color light source may be employed. The use of at least one of feed forward and feedback control provided by maximizing an output of the photo detector allows an optical pulse having a short width to be realized.

摘要： An optical amplifying-repeating transmission system is disclosed which is composed of an optical fiber for transmitting a lightwave signal with digital information added to return-to-zero lightwave pulses and a plurality of optical amplifying repeaters inserted in the optical fiber for transmission use. The mean value of wavelengths at which the wavelength dispersion of the optical fiber is zero is smaller than the wavelength of the lightwave signal which is transmitted over the system. The accumulated wavelength dispersion value of the optical fiber tends to increase with the distance of transmission, from a macroscopic viewpoint. The optical fiber for transmission is divided into a plurality of sections. In accordance with the accumulated wavelength dispersion value of the optical fiber in each section except at least the last one, a wavelength dispersion medium, which locally changes the wavelength dispersion in a manner to cancel the accumulated wavelength dispersion in the section at the wavelength of the lightwave signal, is inserted in the section to eliminate the accumulation of the timing jitter.
