Compact integrated tunable dispersion compensators

Tunable dispersion compensators for 10 and 40 Gb/s signals using planar waveguide ring-resonator allpass filters are reviewed. Recent work using tunable ring-resonators as building blocks for PMD emulation, compensation and monitoring are also discussed.
