Abstract
The dispersion of 8×10Gb/s wavelength division multiplex (WDM) system has been compensated by the cascaded chirped fiber Bragg gratings(CFBGs), with ITU-T standard wavelengths and wavelength grid. The ASE of the EDFA could be reduced, the OSNR of the transmitted signal could be increased and the fluctuation of the EDFA gain could be controlled in the certain scope by the dispersion compensated CFBGs' WDM system. Impact of cascaded CFBGs' delay ripple on dispersion compensation has been analyzed. Experiment of error-free 8×10Gb/s 2015km transmission without forward error correction (FEC) and electronic repeaters were demonstrated. In the transmission, simplex CFBGs compensators were used and no other form of dispersion compensators were adopted. The experiment result showed that the consistency of the dispersion compensating in each channel is perfect over 2015km optical fiber transmission. The experiment result does agree with the theoretic analysis.
