Design of Lightwave
Communication Systems and
Networks
Objectives
• To introduce the basic physics of photonic devices
and apply it for the design of optical transmission
systems and networks.
• To simulate the various photonic components and
also to do system level simulations.
• To study different noise processes in photonic
circuits and understand their impact on Q-factor or
BER.
• To develop engineering rules for the design of
fiber-optic transmission systems.

History
•
Invention of Laser and Maser in 1960s
- In 1950s, Townes and Schawlow in the US and Basov and Prochorov in
the USSR proposed to make use of stimulated emission for the
construction of coherent optical sources.
– In 1960- Maiman demonstrated the first laser.
– In 1970, Hayashi et al demonstrated GaAs semiconductor laser operating
at room temperature.
•
Low Loss Fibers in 1970s
– Fibers available in 1960s had losses in excess of 1000dB/km.
– In 1970, Kapran, Keck and Maurer invented a low loss fiber with the loss
of 20 dB/km.
– In 1979, Miya et al reported a loss of 0.2 dB/km near 1550 nm.
•
Erbium Doped Fiber Amplifiers in 1980s.
– In 1980s, Poole et al in the UK and Desurvire in the US demonstrated
light amplification by EDFA. Now it is used in all commercial long haul
fiber optic networks.
