Abstract
Pulse shape distortion due to chromatic dispersion and self-phase modu lation in a single-mode fiber was effectively compensated for by using an optical phase-conjugate wave generated by nondegenerate forward fo ur-wave mixing in a zero-dispersion single-mode fiber. Using optical p hase conjugation at the midpoint of a 100-km standard single-mode fibe r compensates for the distortion of 10-Gb/s intensity-modulated NRZ pu lse at an input power level exceeding +10 dBm with a resultant power p enalty of less than 1.2 dB.
