Compensation of Dispersion in OFC Using Fiber Bragg Grating

This paper is based on a simulation of optical transmission system in optical fiber. Over the recent years, fiber Bragg grating have become popular due their extremely firm characteristics. The Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) is a periodic structure fabricated inside the core of the optical fiber. The periodicity could be mechanical like variation of the core diameter or it could be electrical like variation of the refractive index of the core. The optical fiber is always used in telecommunication system due to its characteristics which include small size or dimension, low loss and low interferences from outside environment. There are various types of optical fiber, the Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) is commonly chosen as important components to compensate the dispersion in optical communication system. FBG is very simple, has low cost filter for wavelength selection and low insertion loss, it has also customized reflection spectrum and wide bandwidth. The simulated transmission system will be analyzed on the basic of different parameters by using OptiSystem simulator.
