We propose and demonstrate a compact tunable optical dispersion compensation (TODC) device with a $100\mathrm{GHz}$ free spectral range capable of mitigating chromatic dispersion impairments. The TODC is based on longitudinal movement of a waveguide grating router, resulting in chromatic dispersion compensation of $\pm 1000\mathrm{ps}/\mathrm{nm}$ . We employed our TODC device for compensating $42.8\mathrm{Gbit}/\sec$ differential phase-shifting keying signal, transmitted over $50\mathrm{km}$ fiber with a $-2\mathrm{dB}$ power penalty at ${10}^{-9}$ .
