Abstract
It is shown that a prechirping of the input solitons can reduce the di spersive wave created by the local mismatch between linear and nonline ar effects on a link with large amplifier spacing (Z(A) greater than o r equal to 50 km) and a small dispersion length (Z(c) < Z(A)). This te chnique is shown to be compatible with the chirped (bandwidth limited) amplification and to increase its domain of application.
