  2. 6. Optical Phase Conjugation and All-Optical Demultiplexing using Four-Wave Mixing in Dispersion Shifted Fibers

    Author : Per Olof E Hedekvist; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; dispersion compensation; nonlinear fiber optics; high-speed communication; four-wave mixing; parametric amplification; noise figure; wavelength conversion; optical phase conjugation; all-optical demultiplexer; mid-span spectral inversion;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with two applications of four-wave mixing in optical dispersion-shifted fibers; optical phase conjugation and all-optical switching. The work is a part of an effort to study the upgradability of the existing fiber plant, which is of large economic interest. READ MORE

  6. 9. Modulation Optimization for Noncoherent Optical Systems

    Author : Johnny Karout; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Direct detection; noncoherent communications; lattice codes; mutual information; fiber-optical communications; intensity modula- tion; sphere packing.; infrared communications; free-space optical communications;

    Abstract : There has been a significant improvement in high-speed electronics and optical components over the past few years, and this is one of the key enabling factors for high data rate transmission. Moreover, multi- level modulation formats, which encode information onto the carrier’s amplitude and phase, are necessary to increase the spectral efficiency of communication systems. READ MORE
