Abstract

In this paper, a dispersion compensation technique for an ultra-long haul optical network utilizing a chirped fiber Bragg grating (CFBG) is presented. A high bit-rate signal of 40 Gbps is inputted into each channel. The CFBG, employed for dispersion compensation, is positioned after demultiplexing, enabling effortless network upgrades. The grating parameters of the implemented CFBG are mathematically analyzed and optimized to counteract net dispersion of over 3153 ps/nm across the channel. The design is verified using the OptiSystem software, resulting in a successful transmission up to 240 km with an average Q-factor of 8.09, utilizing an amplification gain of 49.5 dB. Additionally, the achieved optical signal-to-noise ratio (OSNR) level using the symmetrical amplification technique surpasses the acceptable value, with an average bit error rate of 10−16.
