Abstract

 

Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) is one of the applicable and important components in optical communication system, and it first emerged in 1980. In this article, the application of chirped FBG was studied as a dispersion compensator in optical communication systems. By simulating a model of communication system and finding the best amounts of parameters, we investigated the effect of this component in data receivers.

 

Key words: Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG), dispersion compensation, optical communication.
