Abstract
In the paper, we propose a new method for chromatic dispersion measurement of WDM components in both transmission and reflection, employing photonic microwave technology. The dispersion can be determined by measuring the frequency spectrum range change of the microwave notch filter. The method features the advantages of low-cost and simplicity. Experimental results demonstrate that our setup is capable of measuring relative group delay with better than ilps time resolution and the measurement results show a good agreement with that measured by the conventional phase-shift technique.
