Resumen
Method and system for the transmission of optical pulses through dispersive media. A sequence of optical pulses (1), passes through an optical conformer (2) to give it the appropriate pulse shape for invariant transmission by a dispersive optical channel (3), in which the dominant dispersion term is linear chromatic dispersion, and the pulse sequence reaches a receiver (4), which processes the received signal in the optical and/or electrical domains. The shaped pulse remains essentially unchanged when propagated with a medium whose dominant dispersive component is the second-order chromatic dispersion. This method avoids the introduction of adaptive second order dispersion compensation elements in the receiver, transmitting optical pulses whose shape remains basically unchanged as it propagates through the dispersive optical channel.
