Compensation of Dispersion in 10 Gbps WDM System by Using Fiber Bragg Grating

In this paper demonstrates the possibility for dispersion compensation in a 10 Gbps WDM with the help of fiber Bragg Grating created with the Fiber Grating component. This component allows design of apodized and chirped fiber gratings that are able to provide dispersion compensation in optical system. The physical idea behind this compensation scheme is the creation of an apodised linear chirped grating allows us to create a time delay between different spectral components of the signal. Because of this different velocity of propagation of different spectral components, the pulse spreads. If we create fiber grating with period linearly reducing along the grating, because the higher frequencies will reflect after longer propagation in the grating a time delay between lower and higher frequency components will appear which is just opposite to this created in the SMF. Therefore propagating and reflecting our pulse in this device will allow to compensate the dispersion broadening of transmitting pulse pulse.
