WDM photonic transmission system
Abstract
The aim of this project to design, simulate and analyse basic photonic
transmission system. The idea is to vary transmission parameters such as data speed,
distance and dispersion. The project plan consists of literature review, and
familiarization of the software, and system development. In this project, the designs are
based on single channel and two different transmission systems i.e. WDM and OTDM
system. These two signals are transmitted into a long haul fibre system. It is expected to
design a system which can transfer huge amount of data in long distance. The system is
expected to transfer up to 420km in a single span. The project starts with a discussion on
understanding and application of optical fibre technology in modern transmission
system. The design and simulation are carried out using Optisystem software. This
project contributes in two major aspects; diverse applications that give huge impact to
society telecommunications and transmission system that have huge potential in
photonics transmission systems especially high speed networks.
