Digital optical communication systems
RDE713

Description
The study course is meant to obtain knowledge about digital signal processing (DSP) in fibre optical communication systems (FOTS), which will enable students not only to understand the specifics of DSP in FOTS, but also to develop and apply effective algorithms and methods for creating a new generation of transmission systems with direct and coherent detection.

Course contents:
  • Introduction to FOTS DSP. 
  • Optical transmitters for direct and coherent transmission. 
  • Optical channel. 
  • Phase noise. 
  • Optical receivers for direct and coherent detection. 
  • Kramers-Kronig receiver. 
  • Delay and dispersions compensation using DSP. 
  • Signal equalization using DSP. 
  • Recovery of carrier clock signals using DSP. 
  • Performance evaluation of FOTS systems.
