Issue Uploading FBG Design from OptiGrating to OptiSystem

[Haifa Khalifah]

Dear Optiwave Support Team,

I hope this message finds you well.

I am currently facing an issue when trying to upload my designed Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) from OptiGrating to OptiSystem. The software does not allow me to import the FBG design properly. I have tried exporting the component, but OptiSystem only accepts .cmp files, while OptiGrating produces .ifo files. Additionally, I do not see the “Export to OptiSystem Component” option in my version.

Could you please guide me on how to correctly transfer or import the FBG design from OptiGrating to OptiSystem? I am using the 30-day trial version of both tools.

Thank you for your time and assistance.

Best regards,
Haifa

Hello Haifa,

Thanks for reaching us!

Once you simulate your FBG in OptiGrating, then you can export its output response in the form of .txt file inside the ‘OptiGrating’ component in OptiSystem. To have a further understanding of it on how to export the data into OptiSystem, I urge you to read the Help document of ‘OptiGrating’ component in OptiSystem. You right click on the component and select Component Help or you can double click on the component in the library window.

Let me know if this resolves your issue? For any further communication, feel free to reach out to me at saurabh.bedi@optiwave.com.

Warm Regards,
Saurabh Bedi.
