Monte-Carlo-based method for group delay ripple reduction in cascaded dispersion compensation FBGs

Monte-Carlo (MC)-based optimization is applied to minimize the group delay ripple (GDR) of cascaded chromatic dispersion compensation fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs). Optimal selection of FBGs using MC shows an improvement of up to ~40% with respect to the average value of 10 cascaded FBGs.
