Advanced Optical Communication Assignment โ 4
1. An engineer has the following components available: (a) GaAlAs laser diode operating at 850 nm and capable of coupling 1 mW (0 dBm) into a fiber. (b) Ten sections of cable each of which is 500 m long, has a 4-dB/km attenuation, and has connectors on both ends. (c) Connector loss of 2 dB/connector. (d ) A pin photodiode receiver. (e) An avalanche photodiode receiver. Using these components, the engineer wishes to construct a 5-km link operating at 20 Mb/s. If the sensitivities of the pin and APD receivers are โ45 and โ56 dBm, respectively, which receiver should be used if a 6-dB system operating margin is required? 2. Using the step response ๐(๐ก) = [1 โ exp(โ 2๐๐ต๐ ๐ก)]๐ข(๐ก), show that the 10- to 90percent receiver rise time is given by ๐ก๐๐ฅ = 0.35/๐ต๐ . 3. Show that, if ๐ก๐ is the full width of the Gaussian pulse, ๐(๐ก) =

exp (โ 2๐2 ) , at the
1/e points, then the relationship between the 3-dB optical bandwidth and ๐ก๐ is given by ๐3๐๐ต = 0.53/๐ก๐ 4. A 90-Mb/s NRZ data transmission system that sends two DS3 (45-Mb/s) channels uses a GaAlAs laser diode that has a 1-nm spectral width. The rise time of the laser transmitter output is 2 ns. The transmission distance is 7 km over a graded-index fiber that has an 800-MHz ยท km bandwidth-distance product. (a) If the receiver bandwidth is 90 MHz and the mode-mixing factor q = 0.7, what is the system rise time? Does this rise time meet the NRZ data requirement of being less than 70 percent of a pulse width? (b) What is the system rise time if there is no mode mixing in the 7-km link; that is, q = 1.0?
