| Abstract: | A directly modulated 1.519-μm distributed-feedback laser signal was transmitted over 233 km of single-mode fiber consisting of dispersion shifted fiber and conventional step-index fiber to minimize the dispersion penalty. The power penalty after the transmission was 0.25 dB. The results show the effectiveness of an optical amplifier repeater system for high-speed long-haul fiber optic transmission |
