Topic Areas
Optical Communications
The subcommittee on "Optical Communications" solicits original papers on recent advances in the field, focusing on the modeling, analysis, simulation, and experimental demonstration of physical-layer issues found in fiber-based and free-space optical telecommunications.
Fields of interest include:
- Physical-layer aspects of submarine, terrestrial long-haul, metropolitan, and fiber access systems and networks
- Terrestrial, air-borne, and space-borne free-space optical communications
- Microwave photonics and analog optical transmission
- Impairments specific to optical communication systems, such as fiber nonlinearity, chromatic dispersion, polarization-mode dispersion, concatenated filtering, multi-path interference, atmospheric turbulence, and fading, among many others
- Optical and electronic mitigation of impairments in optical communication systems
- Optical modulation, detection, coding, and digital signal processing
- Component and subsystem technologies applied to optical communication systems
- Active and passive components and multiplexing technologies in optical systems
- Optical performance monitoring
