Abstract
A novel optical transversal delay line signal processor based on the u se of in-fibre Bragg grating reflectors as tapping elements is present ed. The requirements on reflectivity mismatch are analysed, and this i s accurately controlled using postprocessing techniques. Results on fr equency discriminator filters using reflectively tapped optical transv ersal filter structures demonstrate uniform and level responses >20GHz with notch depths >44dB.
