| Abstract: | We demonstrate transmission of two wavelength division multiplexed (WDM) bit parallel channels over 100 km of standard single mode fibre link using direct-modulated laser diodes at 10 Gbit/s channel. Step-chirped fibre gratings are used to simultaneously compensate to bit skew and dispersion. Bit skew of approximately 2.5 ns due to the fibre dispersion is completely compensated. Our work show shows that the step-chirped fibre grating technique can eliminate the bit skew for bit parallel WDM systems operating at Gbit rate over hundreds of kilometres of fibre link. |
