Analytical Calculation of the Number of Four-Wave-Mixing Products in Optical Multichannel Communication Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
In fiber-optic systems with multiple channels or subcarriers, any three channels create new signal components through the nonlinear process of Four-Wave-Mixing (FWM). For the first time, to our best knowledge, we calculate the number of these products for each frequency. The results can be useful for nonlinear system analysis of multiplexed fiber-optic communication systems.

Suppression of Four Wave Mixing Based on the Pairing Combinations of Differently Linear-Polarized Optical Signals in WDM System
Data transmission in optical systems and increased transmission distance capacity benefit by using optical amplification wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) technology. The combination of four waves (FWM) is a non-linear effect in the wavelength division multiplex (WDM), when more than two wavelengths of light in a fiber launch will occur. FWM amount depends on the channel, the channel spaci...

We will present a detailed investigation of intersubband transitions process in core-multi shells quantum dots. The confined wave functions and eigenenergies of electrons in quantum dots have been calculated under the effective-mass approximation by solving a three-dimensional Schrodinger equation. Excellent dependence is found between size effects, time relaxation and degenerate four wave mixi...
