Abstract :
For a full simulation of DWDM-components like arrayed-waveguide-gratings a combination of BPM/FEM and analytical models is used. We show modelling results for transmission characteristics with emphasis on insertion loss, bandwidth and crosstalk and give a comparison with experimental results
