Abstract
An optical transmission system is provided that includes a transmitting terminal, a receiving terminal remotely located from the transmitting terminal, and an optical transmission path connecting the transmitting terminal to the receiving terminal. The optical transmission path includes at least one optical amplifier such that portions of the optical transmission path located between adjacent optical amplifiers or terminals denote a transmission span. The path includes constituent optical fiber having a positive dispersion shift, dispersion compensating optical fiber having a negative dispersion shift, and dispersion slope compensating fiber having a negative dispersion slope.
