Chromatic Dispersion. (i) Chromatic Dispersion is the broadening or spreading of a pulse of light due to the nonzero spectral width of a transmission signal. The effects of chromatic dispersion can limit the network transmission rate or the length of fiber a signal can be transmitted before requiring re-generation.
Chromatic Dispersion. Objective This measurement enables the chromatic dispersion of an Optic Link to be assessed. Operational method - A measurement of the chromatic dispersion will be carried out fibre by fibre. - This measurement is carried out in one direction only.
