Abstract
An optical amplifying transmission system is disclosed in which a large quantity of optical fiber whose zero dispersion wavelength is longer than the wavelength of the lightwave signal is introduced to provide an RZ lightwave signal transmission system. In this system, the average zero dispersion wavelength by the optical fiber is shorter than the wavelength of the lightwave signal, the zero dispersion wavelength by the optical fiber whose length is in the range of one-thirds to two-thirds of the entire length of the optical fiber is longer than the wavelength of the lightwave signal, and the absolute value of the wavelength dispersion is larger than one-half the absolute value of the average wavelength dispersion value over the entire length of the optical fiber.
