Abstract

We demonstrate trasmission of 2-ps optical pulses at 1550 nm over 40 km of standard fiber by employing midspan optical phase conjugation in semiconductor optical amplifiers. The second-order group-velocity dispersion of the fiber is completely compensated and the third-order dispersion becomes a major transmission limitation
