Kanakidis et al presented several kinds of all-optical chaotic communication systems using two encoding techniques and various dispersion compensation maps [1]. It shows that the permitted transmission distances are different for various dispersion compensation maps and various encoding techniques. In order to explore the upper limits of the transmission distance, the parameters of the all-optical chaotic communication system introduced by D. Kanakidis et al. [1] is optimized using genetic algorithm. Some useful results are presented.
