Dispersion compensator and method of compensating for dispersion

The method for dispersion compensation and the dispersion compensator that carries out the method, split an optical signal into two frequency bands fH and fL. The frequency bands are transmitted in two Mach-Zehnder arms, where they are subjected to different propagation delays. When the frequency ba...

Summary:The method for dispersion compensation and the dispersion compensator that carries out the method, split an optical signal into two frequency bands fH and fL. The frequency bands are transmitted in two Mach-Zehnder arms, where they are subjected to different propagation delays. When the frequency bands are recombined, they are polarized orthogonally with respect to one another.
