New Approach To Dispersion Description For Dispersion -Shifted Single - Mode Fibres

It it hypothesized a new approach to describe the chromatic dispersion of dispersion-shifted single-mode fibres (DS-SMF). Measurements on a commercial available DS- SMF support this hypothesis. This new approach has interest because it reveals that for both conventional and dispersion-shifted fibres, the same curve shape could be employed to specify the dispersion.
