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 8.0 - New version now available
- 100 Gbit/s Coherent PM-QPSK system modeling capabilities.
- New enhancements addressing the design of passive optical network (PON) architectures using orthogonal frequency division multiplexed (OFDM) signals, optical coherent detection systems, and injection‐locked
Fabry‐Perot laser diodes (F‐P LD).
- The OptiSystem 8.0 engine is extended to support OptiSPICE, the first circuit design software for analysis of
integrated circuits including interactions of optical and electronic components. - 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.
