1. Towards Practical Implementation of Phase-Sensitive Amplifier Based Transmission Systems
Abstract : All commercially available optical amplifiers are so-called phase-insensitive amplifiers (PIAs) which degrade the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) through the amplification process. This kind of amplifier has a quantum limited noise figure (NF) of 3 dB. READ MORE

2. Nonlinearity mitigation in phase-sensitively amplified optical transmission links
Abstract : The fundamental limitations in fiber-optic communication are caused by optical amplifier noise and the nonlinear response of the optical fibers. The quantum-limited noise figure of erbium-doped fiber amplifier (EDFA) or any phase-insensitive amplifier is 3 dB. READ MORE

3. Phase Sensitive Amplifiers for Free-Space Optical Communications
Abstract : The demand for high data rate free-space communications is increasing due to the planned future space exploration missions. In the next few years there is a need to increase the speed by 100 times according to NASA, and this necessitates that transmission systems operate at higher carrier frequencies. READ MORE

5. Energy Saving vs. Performance: Trade-offs in Optical Networks
Abstract : The energy consumption of communication networks is continuously growing. Many energy saving approaches have been proposed at the device, system, and network level. The most promising way to address this problem is to utilize photonic technologies as much as possible thanks to their low energy consumption per bit performance. READ MORE
