We study the impact of different parameters on the filtering of the structure using plane wave expansion and finite difference time domain methods. We also study the effect of the output waveguide position on the performance of the filter and results show that the proper position of the output waveguide is straight to the center of the resonant cavity. The initial form of filter is capable of selecting the optical waves at λ = 1,554.2 nm and the transmission efficiency of the filter is obtained about 100 %.
