Abstract

AbstractThe ever increasing demand for higher data rates and minimum latency has resulted in a widespread growth of optical fiber communication over the last decade. Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) technique is one of the most important techniques used to establish a long-distance link with higher data rate transmission. However, when the requirement is to transmit the data inside a metropolitan (shorter range) city, DWDM has certain limitations like wideband change, more power consumption, and high-cost factor for lower channels. CWDM (Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing) can easily overcome these disadvantages. In this paper, the performance of 8 channel optical transmission link for Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing based optical network has been analyzed and compared. Here we’ve compared the performances in terms of Q-factor (Quality factor), BER (Bit Error Rate), and eye height in the eye diagram. For experimental setup and simulation, Optisystem-18 software is used.KeywordsCWDMBitrateAPD photodetectorLow pass filterQ-factor
