I. Definition - review

Optical sensor- a photonic system in which the input signal (Vi), introduces modifications or modulation of light characteristics (transmission, intensity, dispersion, Reflection, absorption etc) , that after being detected and

processed will deliver an output signal (Vout, usually in electrical domain) which will be a valid reproduction of

object variable

Erbium Doped fibers 20μm- and 25μm-core, double-clad fibers,

code Yb 1200 -25 -250DC, provider Liekki Oy

•λs = 1.064μm, Ps = 300 mW, λP = 976 nm, Pp = 30 W

allows optical component and system design engineers to

determine:

-the tradeoffs between EDFAs, EYDFs, EYDWs, YDFs,

-performance by calculating how metrics such as

max output power, min noise figure, min gain ripple,

and minimum pump power

depend on device specifications such as:

pump wavelength range, passive component losses.

The component library includes single or double-clad fibers,

static and dynamic amplifiers.

The optical spectrum of the DFB laser output is shown below.

There is only one mode in the spectrum.

The signal mode only takes up a very narrow bandwidth, which can efficiently be used in WDM systems.

Applications• Design high-capacity WDM systems including novel modulation schemes, CD and PMD compensation, Raman and hybrid

amplification, optical signal processing, optical channel monitoring

• Develop high-performance & cost-effective solutions for 100GbE using coherent detection and digital signal processing.

• Evaluate risks in component choice by considering the details of systems design.

• Assess component performance in a virtual test-bed to develop component specifications.

• Perform quick WDM system design evaluation using link performance analysis functions and engineering design rules.

• Evaluate crosstalk and dynamics in reconfigurable DWDM networks due to power transients and test countermeasures.

• Evaluate advantages of modulation formats like Duobinary, CSRZ, mQAM, PSBT, (CSRZ-)DPSK, (RZ-)DQPSK.

• Explore several Tbit/s systems using C, L and S band windows

• Develop Ultra Long Haul amplified systems and submarine systems.

• Select technologies (CWDM, PON, ROADM, RSOA) and topologies of aggregation and distribution networks.

• Evaluate schemes for microwave and RF-over-Fiber systems carrying wireless formats (WiFi, WiMax, UMTS, CDMA).

• Quantify fiber-induced signal degradation from CD, Kerr, PMD, SRS, SBS, reflections.

• Evaluate new aggregation formats such as optical CDMA and optical SCM-OFDM.

• Investigate the feasibility of upgrading analog HFC networks with digital services.

• Identify critical design parameters including laser chirp, RIN, amplifier gain-tilt and noise, path loss, and filtering.

• Maximize the capacity of the fiber plant using bidirectional transmission.

BPM - finite difference beam propagating method –solves Maxwell's equations by using finite differences in place of

partial derivatives. Works in the frequency domain, and as such only weak non-linearities can be modelled

FDTD-Finite Difference Time Domain-ability to model light propagation, scattering and diffraction, and reflection and

polarization effects. It can also model material anisotropy and dispersion without any pre-assumption of field behavior

such as the slowly varying amplitude approximation. The method allows for the effective and powerful simulation and

analysis of sub-micron devices with very fine structural details. A sub-micron scale implies a high degree of light

confinement and correspondingly, the large refractive index difference of the materials (mostly semiconductors) to be

used in a typical device design.
