Abstract
In wavelength-division-multiplexed optical networks signals pass through cascades of multiplexing/demultiplexing filters. We present experimental measurements and theoretical modeling of transmission power penalty at 10 Gbps due to dispersion slope of fiber-Bragg-grating and thin-film cascades.
