  • Abstract
    An optimum design method is presented for a "spaceless" unit structure in submarine optical fiber cable. The unit structure has been designed taking into consideration the loss increase caused by both a 40-km-long winding unit and a temperature change of 100°C. An appropriate jacket thickness and hardness was found which satisfies these requirements.
