Sumario:We investigate theoretically and experimentally the detrimental e ect of ber dispersion on the synchroniza- tion of an optoelectronic phase chaos cryptosystem. We evaluate the root-mean square synchronization error and the cancellation spectra between the emitter and the re- ceiver in order to characterize the quality of the optical ber communication link. These two indicators explicitly show in temporal and spectral domain how ber dispersion does negatively a ect the phase chaos cancellation at the re- ceiver stage. We demonstrate that the dispersion manage- ment techniques used in conventional optical ber networks, such as dispersion-compensating modules/ bers or disper- sion shifted bers, are also e cient to strongly reduce the detrimental e ects of ber propagation in phase chaos com- munications. This compatibility therefore opens the way to a successful integration of more than 10-Gb/s phase chaos communications systems in existing networks, even when the ber link spans over more than 100 km.
