Abstract

A Delay Line filter based dispersion compensator and dispersion slope compensator for an optical fiber transmission system are implemented using 4 port couplers. The filter performance is evaluated in a 100 km single mode fiber link by simulating the entire system using optisystem software. Both dispersion compensation and dispersion slope compensation resulted in improvement in Eye Opening Penalty, the Q factor and BER.
