We report a detailed characterization of the properties of a chirped fiber Bragg grating with respect to the amount of applied chirp. The results demonstrate the reflection and dispersion dependencies associated with any linearly chirped grating. The dispersion of the device tested could be continuo

✦ Synopsis
A scheme for simultaneous compensation of dispersion and loss is proposed. It should be realizable by doping an optical fiber having a high negative dispersion coefficient at 1.55 m with erbium ions. Numerical calculations are presented for a typical design example. It is seen that for a targeted gain of 15 dB there is an optimum doping level for which the required pump power is minimum and the noise figure is about 4 dB. Such an erbium-doped dispersion compensating fiber should be a promising alternative as a more compact unit than the combination of an erbium-doped fiber amplifier and dispersion compensating fiber as two individual components.
