Abstract :
The use of duobinary optic signalling is proposed for extending the dispersion-limited propagation distances at 10 Gbit/s without the use of finely tuned dispersion compensation techniques. Experimental transmission system performance evaluation over 100 km of standard step-index fibre at 1.55 mu m has been achieved with a penalty of only 0.5 dB.
