Abstract
A method and device for compensating, within a node of an optical network, chromatic dispersion undergone by optical packets transmitted within time slots of wavelength division multiplexed channels along at least one link of the optical network, a time slot duration corresponding to the sum of a packet duration and an inter-packet gap duration. The method and device demultiplexes the wavelength division multiplexed channels into a plurality of bands, and transmits the bands, via a respective plurality of delay lines having predetermined delays, toward a respective plurality of packet add/drop structures comprising a coherent receiver.
