Summary :

We analyze the dispersion-managed optical transmission system for the non-return-to-zero (NRZ) pulse format. First, we investigate the physical image of dispersion management by computing small-signal-based transfer functions, and summarize the dependence of transmission performance on system parameters. Next, the Q-map is computed numerically to design long-distance large-capacity dispersion-managed transmission systems for a single channel in a more detailed manner. It is shown that the third-order dispersion of fibers negatively influences transmission performance, and third-order dispersion compensation is proved to be an effective method for extending the transmission distance of high bit-rate systems. Utilizing these results, guidelines can be derived for the optimal design of long-distance large-capacity NRZ transmission systems.
