Abstract
A technique is provided for determining an optical transmission system description. The technique includes determining a dispersion map of the optical transmission system, placing a set of discrete cumulative dispersions onto the dispersion map, and defining a plurality of sequential system segments of the optical transmission system. Each system segment has an input point that corresponds to a point in the optical transmission system where the input cumulative dispersion matches a cumulative dispersion of the set of discrete cumulative dispersions. For each system segment, an input power of the system segment and a local dispersion value of the system segment is determined. Also, for each system segment, a sequence number of the system segments is stored. Furthermore, for each system segment, the input power and the local dispersion value determined in relation with the input cumulative dispersion of the system segment in a data repository is stored.
