Abstract :
This paper presents the design of a WDM filter for three wavelength division multiplexing based on silicon photonics technology for ONT - GPON under development at CTI. The components are being fabricated in an external foundry of the Europractice consortium (IMEC). The results obtained are in compliance with the required specs for download and upload streaming.
