"WDM Single Mode Fiber Link Performance Analysis with Various Modulation Formats for SBS Tolerance"

Problem Definition

Problem Description: The increasing demand for high-speed data transmission over long distances has led to the widespread adoption of Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) technology in optical communication systems. However, one of the major challenges faced in WDM systems is the impact of Stimulated Brillouin Scattering (SBS) on signal transmission. SBS can limit the power levels that can be transmitted through the fiber, leading to signal degradation and potentially causing system failure. To address this problem, there is a need for a thorough performance analysis of WDM single mode fiber links using different modulation formats. By studying the tolerance of the system to SBS under various modulation schemes such as ASK, FSK, and PSK, it will be possible to optimize the design of WDM systems to mitigate the effects of SBS and improve overall performance and reliability.

This project aims to investigate how different modulation formats affect the SBS tolerance of WDM systems and develop strategies to enhance system efficiency and robustness in the presence of SBS.

Proposed Work

The proposed work focuses on the performance analysis of a WDM single mode fiber link using different modulation formats for Stimulated Brillouin Scattering (SBS) tolerance. Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) is the process of transmitting multiple optical signals with different wavelengths over a single fiber in parallel. Factors such as loss and dispersion impact the efficiency of WDM. Stimulated Brillouin scattering occurs when a laser beam generates an acoustic wave, leading to frequency shifts. This research project aims to design a WDM single mode fiber link using various modulation formats to enhance SBS tolerance.

Modules used in this study include Matrix Key-Pad, Introduction of Linq, Stepper Motor Drive using Optocoupler, and Wireless networks. This work falls under the categories of Latest Projects and M.Tech | PhD Thesis Research Work, specifically in the subcategory of Latest Projects. The analysis will be conducted using software to assess the performance and tolerance of different modulation formats in WDM fiber links.
