Effect of seasonal temperature fluctuations on performance 160 Gbps optical fiber networks with chromatic dispersion
compensation is studied. Total compensation is obtained by adjusting both length of compensating fiber and
compensation slope factors of transmission fiber that vary with seasonal temperature. Based on numerical models on
temperature dependence and measurements data, numerical simulation studies have been performed. The obtained
results show quantitative compensation requirements for seasonal thermal effects for the range of temperatures
considered during seasonal changes in Muscat area of more than 60 degrees. The results show also that NRZ coding
format is more tolerant to seasonal temperature fluctuations than RZ coding format.
