. Dans-ce-contexte, ce travail de thèse rapporte l'étude des effets de la CD et de la PMD sur les transmissions hauts débits. En outre, la PMD est identifiée aujourd'hui comme la principale source de limitation de la bande passante et de la capacité de transmission autorisées sur une fibre, Par ailleurs, la biréfringence dans les fibres optiques représente la cause principale de la dispersion de mode de polarisation

. Dans, étude des effets de la température sur la PMD dans les fibres monomodes standards (SMF) correspondant à la spécification ITU-G.652 utilisées dans les réseaux de transmission longues distances. En tenant compte de l'ellipticité du coeur de la fibre, la variation de la PMD en fonction de la température est étudiée à travers l'évolution de la biréfringence en fonction du paramètre V de la fibre pour différentes températures. Ce travail de thèse ouvre la voie pour développer une architecture permettant de compenser la PMD par traitement numérique du signal. L'idée sous jacente est de remplacer une technologie coûteuse (composants optiques) par une architecture numérique à faible coût, et plus universelle, Les travaux en cours sur la compensation de la PMD par voie électronique sont encourageants et semblent très prometteurs à court terme
