Abstract: | The authors demonstrate the effectiveness of a tap multiplexing technique that enables the doubling of the number of taps in a photonic transversal filter. This technique has been used to achieve a fibre grating-based optical transversal filter with the equivalent of 16 taps. The authors also demonstrate the technique in combination with apodisation of the photonic transversal filter |
