Optiwave Releases OptiSystem 4.1
OTTAWA , ONTARIO – Sept. 21, 2005 – Optiwave Systems Incorporated, the leading provider of innovative software design tools for photonics, today announced the immediate availability of OptiSystem 4.1, a significant update to the award winning optical communication system design tool. New features in OptiSystem 4.1 simplify the accurate simulation of transient characteristics of optical amplifiers and lasers.
OptiSystem is an innovative, rapidly evolving, and powerful software design tool that enables users to plan, test, and simulate almost every type of optical link in the physical layer of a broad spectrum of optical networks from LAN, SAN, MAN to ultra-long-haul. “OptiSystem 4.1 is an essential update which addresses the simulation of advanced optical amplifier configurations,” said Jan Jakubczyk , President and CEO of Optiwave.
OptiSystem delivers a comprehensive toolset with over 400 components enabling optical engineers to meet their simulation needs in a dynamic computer aided design environment.
Powerful New Features
Enhancements in OptiSystem 4.1 provide optical engineers with more options for robust simulations and ultimately empower end users with a wider range of flexible simulation options. OptiSystem 4.1 users can take advantage of the following features:
Dynamic Er-Yb Codoped Fiber. A new and exclusive dynamic model of a double clad Er-Yb co-doped fiber, allows for the simulation of transient characteristics of amplifiers and lasers.
Doped Fiber Nonlinearities. Fiber non-linear effects including Four-Wave Mixing, Stimulated Brillouin Scattering, Self-Phase Modulation, Cross-Phase Modulation, and Stimulated Raman Scattering are all included as options to the Yb and Er-Yb codoped fiber models.
Brillouin Effects. A new Stimulated Brillouin Scattering numerical engine as a strong addition to OptiSystem bidirectional fiber models, including Yb and Er-Yb codoped fibers.
