The advantage of this method lies in that the required input power can be much reduced, and the filter output can be used in the dynamic CD compensation system. The simulation indicates that the filtered power decreases with CD increases, and that the monitoring range increases as the filter bandwidth increases.展开更多

Through manipulating the four air-hole parameters and the pitch, the broad band dispersion compensation MF can be efficiently designed. The newly designed MF could compensate (to within 0.8%) the dispersion of 101 times of its length of standard single mode fiber over the entire 100-nm band centered on 1550 nm. The proposed design has been simulated through the finite difference beam propagation method, and the corresponding design procedures are also presented. OCIS codes: 060.2310, 060.2280.展开更多
