  • Abstract
    The authors report the first experimental evaluation of longitudinal chromatic dispersion distribution in a 120 km long installed submarine cable using a bi-directional OTDR technique. Moreover they evaluate analytically the four wave mixing efficiency in the cable taking the measured dispersion distribution into account
