Abstract :
The microwave photonic response of a superstructured fiber Bragg grating is investigated. A bandpass response is achieved with the optical taps controlled by the combination of superstructured fiber grating characteristics and fiber dispersion. A rejection level of >45 dB is demonstrated.
