Abstract Due to the frequency shift occurring in the process of optical phase conjugation (OPC) generation, the application of OPC in multiple-channel transmission is limited severely by the third-order dispersion. In this paper, taking into account the influence of the frequency shift and the compensation of nonlinear effects, we present an effective method to optimize the dispersion map for broad-band transmissions using optical phase conjugation.» Read the summary
