Abstract
A 610-Gbit/s optical time division multiplexed signal was successfully tran smitted over a 92-km zero-dispersion-flattened transmission line. The trans mission line consisted of single-mode fiber, dispersion-shifted fiber, and reverse dispersion fiber. By using reverse dispersion fiber instead of disp ersion slope compensation fiber, we were able to increase the transmission distance from 63 to 92 km because reverse dispersion fiber has less polariz ation mode dispersion and a flatter dispersion profile.
