Dispersion-managed solitons and their applications in ultra-long-haul transmissions

摘要

Dispersion-managed solitons and their applications in ultra-long-haul transmissions are presented. The advantages of dispersion managed soliton transmissions over those of ordinary soliton and chirped RZ formats will be discussed. New designs in dispersion mapping, amplification (both Raman and EDFA), and transmitters and receivers will also be presented.
