Popis: The aim of this work is to propose a model for enhancing chromatic dispersion compensation in standard single mode optical fibers (SSMFs). The proposed model consists of a single stage Apodized Uniform Fiber Bragg Gratings (AUFBG) in a post-compensation scheme. It is based on the Maximum Time Division Multiplexing (MTDM) technique. The performance of the proposed model is evaluated through the quality factor (Q-factor) and Bit Error Rate (BER) in four cases, in a comparative study. In case one, the system performance is evaluated without using UFBG. The other cases study the effect of the proposed model with using different connections schemes and the most common apodization functions. For simulation, the proposed model is connected in a 10 Gbps WDM 70 km link under ordinary operating parameters. The simulation and evaluation process is conducted by Optisystem 7.0. In the pre-compensation scheme, the best results are obtained as a maximum Q-factor of 9.2 and a minimum BER of 3.25 × 10–20, using a tanh apodization function. The proposed model realizes an improvement over the related work by at least ~ 68%.
