Claim 27:
28. The method of claim 27, wherein the step of dynamically tuning the dynamic dispersion compensator includes: rotating at least one stratified structure of the cohort, positioning at least one moveable reflective layer on the front portion of at least one stratified structure in the cohort, changing a thickness of at least one of the plurality of adjacent layers of at least one of the stratified structures of the cohort, or one or more combinations of any of the foregoing,
wherein rotating at least one stratified structure of the cohort changes an angle of incidence upon which the incident electromagnetic signal encounters any of the stratified structures within the cohort and thereby dynamically tunes the dynamic dispersion compensator by changing the group delay dispersion of the cohort,
wherein positioning at least one moveable reflective layer on the front portion of at least one stratified structure in the cohort changes the group delay dispersion of the cohort and thereby dynamically tunes the dynamic dispersion compensator, and
wherein changing a thickness of at least one of the plurality of adjacent layers of at least one of the stratified structures of the cohort changes the group delay dispersion of the at least one of the stratified structures of the cohort and thereby dynamically tunes the dynamic dispersion compensator.
