Abstract :
The aim of this work is to study the effects of concentrating the dispersion compensation modules (DCMs) at specific points along the dispersion map -lumped mapping, as opposite to deploying a larger number of smaller (DCMs) placed periodically along the map. System setup and numerical modelling are given also in detail.
