What is the transfer function or formula used for designing rectangular optical filter in optisystem?pls help

Hi, it is simply a flat-top filter with a certain bandwidth, rectangular shape.
For example, if you select in its parameters Frequency=1550nm and Bandwidth=2nm, when you enter with a WhiteNoise Source, the output is a rectangular source with equal power between 1549nm and 1551nm. -

Hi Sindhu,
I agree with the asnwer given above by Alessandro. The only thing I would like to add, according to your question, that the transfer function of this filter will be a well-known step-function. This function can be described by various polynomials. The higher the orders of this polynomials the closer this function will be to a step function. Please, see following links as examples:

Thanks for the reply.It was really useful Ravil and Alessandro Festa.
Ravil can u pls tell me the difference between rectangular optical filter and guassian optical filter too.It will be really helpful.Thanks in advance. -

Hi Sindhu Kadrivel
Gaussian optical filter is basically ideal time domain filter with minimum group delay.These filters filter out the signal with very less rise and fall time with no overshoot.Where as rectangular filter explained well by Ravil and Alessandro. -

Hi Sindhu,
According to your last question about the difference between Gaussian and rectangular filters, I agree with the explanation given by Sam Sung. I just want to add from me that, according to a theory, your final filter choice will depend on shape of pulses that you have in your system. Here I mean that the “Matched filters” should be used for best filtration: the shape of your pulses should always match the shape of your filter’s impulse response!

You are welcome, Sindhu! I was glad to share my knowledge (as much as I can) with you and give you some guidance. Good luck with your work and research!

if the transmitter is using NRZ type of data then rectangular filter is going to give optimum o/p
