Abstract :
Transmission of 6 ps linear pulse pairs over 50 km of standard fiber is demonstrated by employing midpoint spectral inversion (phase conjugation) of the data signal to compensate dispersion effects. Pulse broadening as low as 10 percent and faithful reconstruction of the pulse patterns are observed and confirm the applicability of this technique to bit rates greater than 100 Gb-1
