Abstract
An optical communication link with correction of non-linear effects comprises an optical fiber transmission line subject to chromatic dispersion and non-linear effects and correction means for limiting the disadvantageous consequences of this dispersion and/or these non-linear effects. The correction means comprise at the output of the transmission line a dispersion compensator adapted to apply dispersion in the opposite direction to and of lower absolute value than the dispersion due to the transmission line.
