Effects of residual second- to fourth-order dispersion in ultra high-speed optical time division multiplexing transmission
We present an expression of maximum fiber-link length, at which the output pulses can return to its original rms time width, in an optical fiber link with up to fourth-order dispersion. The fourth order dispersion is compensated by combination of the effects of proper source chirping and negative residual second-order dispersion. The interesting fact is that the optical pulses can restore itself at a longest distance even in case of chirp parameter being positive, as well as being negative traditionally. The validity of the analytical formulas is also confirmed by split-step Fourier numerical stimulation.
