Abstract :
Tunable filters are one of the key devices for the future wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) system. The acousto-optic tunable filter (AOTF) has many advantages such as fast tuning speed and high resolution power. We propose a new technique of stabilizing control of an AOTF using the digital feedback technique
