Abstract

See full text

An apparatus, e.g. an optical data transmission device, is configured to propagate a non-return-to-zero (NRZ) modulated optical communication signal. A plurality of optical amplifiers are configured to receive the modulated optical signal. An optical transmission line includes a sequence of at least five spans of optical fiber, with each adjacent pair of the spans being connected by one of the optical amplifiers. Between about 10% and about 75% of the optical amplifiers include a dispersion compensation module (DCM) and a remainder of the optical amplifiers do not include a DCM, and at least two of said optical amplifiers are optically coupled between a first and a second optical add-drop multiplexer.
