Abstract :
Optical fiber submarine cable systems especially developed for international systems throughout the world are reviewed, and the future technologies for optical fiber submarine cable systems are discussed. The discussion covers: system design; cable design and the fiber used; mechanical design of submarine optical repeaters; branching repeaters; repeater circuits; reliability; terminal equipment; repeater supervisory systems; initial system applications; and future trends
