Increase in FPGA capacity combined with CMOS technology scaling has resulted in increased demands on the configurable wiring architecture. Modern FPGAs typically give over 50% of the reconfigurable area over to routing resources. Rent’s Rule [1,2] implies that static FPGA wiring is not scalable and we are approaching the point where cross chip communication is impossible within a clock cycle. I...

A novel time domain multiplexed (TDM) spatial division multiplexing (SDM) receiver which allows for the reception of >1 dual polarization mode with a single coherent receiver, and corresponding 4-port oscilloscope, is experimentally demonstrated. Received by two coherent receivers and respective 4-port oscilloscopes, a 3 mode transmission of 28GBaud QPSK, 8, 16, and 32QAM over 41.7km of few-mod...

In the present paper, the recent applications of optical parametric amplifiers (OPAs) in hybrid wavelength division multiplexing (WDM)/time division multiplexing (TDM) local area passive optical networks have been modeled and parametrically investigated over wide range of the affecting parameters. Moreover, we have analyzed the ability of the hybrid WDM/TDM Passive optical networks to handle a ...

This paper proposes an analytical model for evaluating the performance of dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) for all optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (AO-OFDM) optical wireless channel. The investigated performance for proposed system is evaluated for the parameters  bit error rate (BER) and Q factor .The constellation diagrams, and bit error rate (BER) of the recei...

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...
