Abstract
We present a solution of the synthesis for reflective optical filters designed for WDM-systems. Filter is based on multilayer dielectric structures with apodized (modulated) refractive index profile. The method of synthesis provides calculation of the uniform quarter-wave filter-prototype. The calculation of the prototype is executed with relation, which join given spectrum characteristics with constructive parameters of the filter. On the base of calculated filterprototype the filter with bilateral Gaussian apodization of a refractive index profile, possessing given spectral properties is formed.
