Abstract
Matched dispersion-slope-managed fiber airs provide simultaneous dispersion and dispersion-slope compensation for WDM transmission over a wider band t han conventional approaches, especially for submarine applications. Nondisp ersion-shifted fiber brings large effective areas and excellent bend-loss p roperties when paired with low-loss dispersion-compensating fiber.
