Content
Why optical communications? Major Milestones in Optical Fiber Communication Evolution of Optical Communication Systems 1st and 2nd generation optical networks
Optical Fibers with DWDM Systems Technologies can provide needed solutions
1970s
Invention of low-loss optical fibre Deployment of systems using LEDs and multi-longitudinal mode (MLM) lasers over multi-mode (MM) fibres Repeater spacing is several km due to modal dispersion
1980s
MLM laser over single mode (SM) fibre in the 1.3 m band is used Regenerator spacing is about 40km and bit rate is several hundred Mb/s A later system using the 1.55 m band for lower loss, and using SLM DFB laser to overcome chromatic dispersion limits to increase bit rate to > 1 Gb/s
