  • Abstract
    We demonstrate a wavelength equalizer that can automatically control individual channel powers in a 40 channel system, yet gives no distortion to channels that already have the same power as their neighbors. It has <6.8 dB insertion loss over 32 nm, 9-13 dB attenuation range, and <0.18 dB polarization/time-dependent loss.
