  • Abstract
    A theoretical investigation of a guided-wave optical equalizer with an α-power chirped grating is presented. A group delay dispersion of 3700 ps/nm can be obtained at λ=1.55 μm by a chirped grating with α=0.3. It is shown that the chromatic dispersion of 200 km of a fiber whose zero-dispersion wavelength is located at 1.3 μm can be compensated at 1.55 μm to achieve up to 10 GHz signal bandwidth
