A plurality of channels of a wavelength division multiplexing system may be subjected to dispersion compensation in a fashion which enables tuning of the compensation for each individual wavelength channel. Moreover, the tuning may be done in a space-efficient fashion. The chirped Bragg gratings may be formed, for example, on a planar light circuit. Each grating may be heated to controllably adjust its dispersion compensation, in one embodiment of the present invention.
