1. Generation and Applications of Picosecond Pulses in High-Capacity Fiber Optic Systems
Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with short optical pulse generation from actively mode-locked Erbium-doped fiber ring lasers (ML-EFRL) and their applications in all-optical signal processing (optical sampling and switching) and transmission experiments for high-capacity fiber optic systems. In future ultra-high bit-rate optical time division multiplexed (OTDM) systems, one of the key requirements is to develop reliable optical pulse sources that can generate high quality optical pulses.

2. Optical Transmission Systems Based on Phase-Sensitive Amplifiers
Sammanfattning : The capacity and reach of today's long-haul fiber optical communication systems is limited by amplifier noise and fiber nonlinearities. Conventional, phase-insensitiveamplifiers (PIAs), have a quantum limited noise figure (NF) of 3 dB at high gain, meaning that with a shot-noise limited input signal the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR)is degraded by at least 3 dB.

3. Towards Practical Implementation of Phase-Sensitive Amplifier Based Transmission Systems
Sammanfattning : All commercially available optical amplifiers are so-called phase-insensitive amplifiers (PIAs) which degrade the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) through the amplification process. This kind of amplifier has a quantum limited noise figure (NF) of 3 dB. LÄS MER
4. Modulation Optimization for Noncoherent Optical Systems
Sammanfattning : There has been a significant improvement in high-speed electronics and optical components over the past few years, and this is one of the key enabling factors for high data rate transmission. Moreover, multi- level modulation formats, which encode information onto the carrier’s amplitude and phase, are necessary to increase the spectral efficiency of communication systems. LÄS MER
5. Optical Phase Conjugation and All-Optical Demultiplexing using Four-Wave Mixing in Dispersion Shifted Fibers
Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with two applications of four-wave mixing in optical dispersion-shifted fibers; optical phase conjugation and all-optical switching. The work is a part of an effort to study the upgradability of the existing fiber plant, which is of large economic interest. LÄS MER
