Optimal Analysis of 40 Gbps Dispersion Compensated Optical Fiber System

Dispersion is one of the main factors that limit the development of optical fiber communication systems regarding data rate and long distance transmission of the signal. This is because of increases in dispersion with the increase in data rate and distance, resulting in signal degradation. In this work, we propose an optimal dispersion compensated optical fiber system, which is designed on the basis of Q-factor, eye height, and bit error rate. The system operates at a bit rate of 40 Gbps and a distance of 100 km. According to the optimization scheme, the system is simulated using the modulation format Non Return to Zero (NRZ) with uniform and Linear Chirped Apodized Fiber Bragg Grating (LCAFBG) as dispersion compensator. After deciding the Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) structure, other key parameters are simulated to meet the requirements. The simulation results show that using NRZ modulation format with a LCAFBG Tanh profile gives better performance.

POLARIZATION MODE DISPERSION COMPENSATOR BASED ON ANISOTROPIC OPTICAL FIBER

In this paper, a new method of polarization mode dispersion (PMD), which can significantly limit the speed and range of transmission of fiber optic transmission systems (FOTS), compensation was developed and analyzed. In contrast to the existing types of PMD compensators, in which the optical fiber is subjected to mechanical stresses to create a photoelastic anisotropy, in this work the use of alternative method of creating photoelasticity in optical fiber (OF) by creating a helical ordered rotation of the glass microstructure (ORMG) is proposed. The helical orientation of the microstructure of the OF glass is achieved by acting on the fiber in the process of manufacture (drawing), when it is in a hot state, electromagnetic field, the power lines of which are directed in a circle. I am not sure what this sentence is trying to say. The result is an asymmetry of the dielectric constant of the fiber glass material and therefore the anisotropy of the optical properties. When the optical signal propagates in such OF, there is a double refraction, which is the cause of artificial PMD in the compensator fiber. Compensation is achieved by performing the equality of the modulus and the sign-opposite between the linear path PMD and the PMD of the anisotropic OF with the ORMG. The expression of the calculation of the PMD of the compensator, which depends on the rotation step of the microstructure of the glass, the chemical composition of the OF, the length of the line, the width of the radiation spectrum and the wavelength of the optical signal, and the optical characteristics of the OF, is analyzed, as well as the spectral dependence of polarization mode dispersion for different chemical compositions of the OF. The expression of determining the length of the OF with the ORMG is presented to compensate for the set value of the PMD in the line. The results of the studies made it possible to determine the lengths of the segments of OF with ORMG, which will provide partial or complete compensation of PMD over a wide range of wavelengths and create passive compensators for dispersion.
