| description | Optical fiber systems are integral to various applications ranging from telecommunications to medical technologies. These systems, however, face significant challenges due to power losses and nonlinear phase changes that occur as signals propagate through the fiber core. To address these issues, this study introduces a hybrid optical method combining spectrum inversion and fiber dispersion compensation. The primary objective is to enhance system performance by mitigating both linear and nonlinear fiber losses. A comparative evaluation reveals that employing optical phase conjugation in the system leads to a substantial improvement in performance metrics. Specifically, the Q-Factor, a measure of signal quality, increases to 20 at an input laser power of 5 mw when using the proposed method, compared to a Q-Factor of 5 achieved with traditional methods. The findings highlight the effectiveness of the proposed technique in compensating for fiber losses and suggest its potential utility in improving the performance of optical fiber systems across various applications. |
