The apodization profiles improve chirped fiber Bragg grating (CFBG) capability to compensate dispersion which enhances the performance of the wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) systems. In this paper, a new apodization profile is proposed to enhance performance and reduces the power budget for a WDM system. The newly apodization profile is implemented to a CFBG as a post compensator in a WDM system for 100 km. It is found the proposed profile enhances the performance and reduces the transmitted power at BER of 10(-9). The evaluation of the proposed profile is compared with a previously published work. It is found the proposed profile enhances the Q-factor by 1.08, decreases BER by 52.8, and reduces the power budget by 4 than the related work.
