Abstract
The line optical fiber of the system is single-mode and has a very large effective mode area accompanied by high chromatic dispersion and/or a steep spectrum gradient of said dispersion. Compensation means are associated with said fiber so as to compensate at least a major portion of said dispersion and/or of said gradient. They are integrated into repeater units distributed along the transmission line. The invention applies to telecommunications.
