Abstract :
We demonstrated a simple technique that can be used to monitor the chromatic dispersion accurately in WDM networks. This technique could monitor the chromatic dispersion of each channel with accuracy better than 60 ps/nm after 640-km transmission over nonzero dispersion shifted fibre (NZDSF). We believe that this technique could be used for the efficient chromatic dispersion compensation in WDM networks.
