Dj. Richardson et al., PERIODICALLY AMPLIFIED SYSTEM BASED ON LOSS COMPENSATING DISPERSION DECREASING FIBER, Electronics Letters, 32(4), 1996, pp. 373-374
The authors demonstrate the use of loss compensating, dispersion decre
asing fibre (LCDDF) in a periodically amplified transmission system, f
or the first time to their knowledge. The significant limiting effects
of the soliton acoustic interaction and third order dispersion are ob
served and discussed. The results illustrate the potential of such tec
hniques for extending data transmission to regimes forbidden by conven
tional average soliton dynamics.
