Course Catalog Description:
Transmission properties of optical fibers - dispersion, attenuation, nonlinear effects (solitons). Direct-detection systems: analog and digital modulation, transmitter design, receiver design, noise properties of single and multimode fiber links, dependence on source coherence, subcarrier and multichannel CATV analog transmission issues the role of optical fiber amplifiers. Coherent communication: FM noise and modulation properties of laser diodes, quantum limited detection, homodyne and heterodyne detection of various formats, laser linewidth requirements, diversity issues. Lightwave networks - WDMA, FDMA, subcarrier, TDMA, and CDMA, relative merits. Topological issues - multihop (sore-and-forward) and hot-potato routing, the role of optical switching. Optical network access protocols. Optical interconnection in high speed circuit modules and computers.

Term Project:
- You can download the schedule and term project details as PDF:
- Choose a partner.
- Choose a topic related to lightwave communications. Ideas may come from the Agrawal book, from the recent Optical Fiber Communications (OFC) Conference (
| Voice-over-IP or Video-over-IP |
| Internet TCP/IP protocols |
| Packet switching |
| Forward Error Correction (FEC) |
| Electronic Dispersion Compensation (EDC) |
| Reconfigurable Optical Add/Drop Multiplexers (ROADM) |
| Synchronous Optical Network (SONET/SDH) protocols |
| Ethernet networks |
| CATV/Hybrid Fiber Coax |
| Fiber to the Home |
| Optical performance monitoring |
| Computer Simulation tools |
- Write a one-page proposal (due April 4) for a 10-15-page report and 20-minute talk.
- After approval, prepare and deliver talk (May 2 – 9) and report (May 9?). Each talk will take 20 minutes (10 minutes/partner) with 5 minutes for questions. Everyone in class should plan to ask at least one question over three days. As an aid, authors should hand out a brief summary of report (< one-page) in a class preceding the talk.
- The report should include a literature search, an explanation of the technology, and its economic and social impact.
