TL;DR: Disclosed is a family of dispersion compensating optical fibers that are adapted for use with conventional singlemode transmission fibers that were optimized for zero dispersion operation at a wavelength in the range from 1290 nm to 1330 nm to form a transmission link suitable for low dispersion operations in the 1520-1565 nm wavelength window.

Low attenuation optical waveguide
TL;DR: In this paper, a single mode optical waveguide fiber having a core refractive index profile in which the profile parameters are selected to provide an attenuation minimum is presented, and a set of profiles having the same general shape and dimensions is shown to have a group of profiles contained in a sub-set which exhibit a minimum of attenuation as compared to the remaining members of the set.
Patent
Increased capacity optical waveguide
TL;DR: In this article, a compound core optical waveguide fiber designed for high data rate or single channel or WDM systems which may include optical amplifiers is presented, where the optical properties are chosen to limit nonlinear effects while maintaining low attenuation and acceptable bend performance.

TL;DR: In this article, erbium-doped fiber amplifiers (EDFAs) are used to reduce the loss of chromatic dispersion in the 1550-nm wavelength window.
Patent
Positive dispersion optical waveguide
TL;DR: In this paper, a single mode optical waveguide fiber having a positive total dispersion is disclosed, wherein properties are calculated as various ones of the core region parameters are changed, show that the waveguide satisfies the requirements of a fiber in a high bit rate, long regenerator spacing system.
