## Abstract The four‐wave mixing (FWM) process in single‐mode optical fibers is investigated by considering that a zero‐dispersion wavelength varies along the length of the fiber link, which is represented as a series of segments with different lengths, propagation constants, and zero‐dispersion wa

✦ Synopsis
In the frame of a large-stroke optical fiber delay line implementation, using the ability of silica fibers to induce large and variable group delay when they are stretched, we intend to express theoretically the evolution of second-order chromatic dispersion versus fiber stretching. Both an experimental analysis and a numerical analysis are presented in this paper. The main result consists of the observation of a linear variation of the secondorder chromatic dispersion versus a 0 to 32-cm group delay variation. The numerical simulation exhibits a discrepancy of 10% with respect to the experimental results.
