Optiwave

Overview

OptiSystem is a comprehensive software design suite that enables users to plan, test, and simulate optical links in the transmission layer of modern optical networks.

OptiSystem 9.0 - New version now available (June 2010)

• Develop solutions for 100GbE system architectures using coherent detection and digital signal processing.
• New transmitters encapsulate the complexity of advanced modulation formats such as DP‐QPSK and QPSK, facilitating the design of sophisticated optical communication networks.
  
• Thulium Doped Fiber model - New rare‐earth doped fiber added to the amplifiers library to cover the amplification bandwidths of 1460‐1530 nm and 1650‐2050 nm.
• New Scilab Component - Co‐simulation in time, frequency and spatial domain with Scilab. New flexible user defined component allows the user to specify the number of inputs, outputs, and parameters.
• A True 64-bit engine supporting next generation operating systems, including Windows 7.

  Comprehensive Features

  • Four-wave Mixing, Stimulated Brillouin Scattering (SBS), Self-Phase Modulation, Cross-Phase Modulation.
  • Stimulated Raman Scattering, and full bi-directional capabilities.
  • MLSE (Maximum Likelihood Sequence Estimate), advanced component using the Viterbi algorithm.
  • A robust library of multimode fiber models, including Parabolic-Index and Measured-Index profile.
  • The most advanced optical amplifier design library available.

  The professional design environment of OptiSystem can simulate emerging PON technologies, such as the various optical code-division multiple-access (OCDMA) techniques for OCDMA-PON architectures. The robust simulation environment enables users to plan, test and simulate optical links in the physical layer of a variety of passive optical networks: BPON, EPON, GPON.

"As optical systems become more and more complex, scientists and engineers must increasingly adopt advanced software simulation techniques for vital assistance with design issues. OptiSystem’s power & flexibility facilitates efficient & effective photonic designs."
