Modeling Receivers in OPTICAL COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS With Polarization Effects
نویسندگان
چکیده
Recent experiments have demonstrated that the bit-error rate of an optical fiber communication system can vary widely due to the random nature of the polarization effects in the system. Using a newly developed receiver model, we show that the bit-error rate depends not only on the optical signal-to-noise ratio but also on the polarization states of the signal and the noise. With the new model we obtained excellent agreement between simulations and experiments for a long-haul transmission system.

Photonic Crystal-Based Polarization Converter for Optical Communication Applications
A photonic crystal-based TE to TM polarization converter for integrated optical communication is proposed in this paper. The photonic crystal consists of air circular-holes in slab waveguide. The radius of holes are determined to be 291nm having lattice constant of 640nm using the gap map and band diagram. The polarization converter is composed of an InGaAsP triangular-shaped waveguide on SiO2 ...
متن کاملPMD Tolerance Testing of Optical Interfaces
Improving the tolerance to polarization mode dispersion (PMD) is considered to be one of the major prerequisites for the success of modern high bit rate optical communication systems. Various approaches such as optical compensation, electrical mitigation, multi-level modulation formats promise to increase the PMD tolerance of optical systems, whereas the question of how to experimentally charac...

متن کاملPolarization Dependence in Optical OFDM Transmission
Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is a transmission technique which has attracted attention in modern communication systems, e.g. DSL and wireless LAN. This principle has been applied recently to optical transmission. The performance of two different implementations of an optical OFDM system is investigated in the presence of differential group delay (DGD). In a second step both...
