Fiber Bragg Gratings for Dispersion Compensation in Transmission: Theoretical Model and Design Criteria for Nearly Ideal Pulse Recompression
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose a transmission-based dispersion compensator employing an apodized, unchirped fiber Bragg grating (FBG). A theoretical model for dispersion compensation in transmission based on the dispersive properties of the periodic structure is developed. A figure of merit is defined for optimization of the grating parameters for maximum recompression of dispersion-broadened optical pulses in long-haul communication systems. Numerical examples confirm that nearly perfect compensation with very low insertion losses can be achieved for many practical cases of interest.

We demonstrate nearly distortionless 2.5-km fiber transmission of sub-500-fs pulses, using a combination of standard single-mode fiber, dispersion-compensating fiber, and a programmable pulse shaper for simultaneous quadratic and cubic dispersion compensation. The dispersion-compensating fiber corrects the bulk of the quadratic and the cubic phases for the single-mode fiber, and the fiber-pigta...
