Abstract

WDM (wavelength division multiplexing) is a powerful technique available to meet the ever-increasing demand for communication bandwidth. Among the WDM techniques, the grating is widely used. Fiber gratings selectively reflect a narrow range of wavelengths; this becomes important in designing demultiplexers. This paper presents a design idea to build a WDM demultiplexer component using Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG). The results obtained reveal that the suggested design is powerful in achieving accurate demultiplexer design. We aim to demonstrate the high level accuracy, the time and cost saving from using the latest state of art software. The performance was measured using quality factor (Q. Factor) and bit error rate (BER), available via visualizers Component Library, included in Optisystem simulator.
