Seminars and Training
VPIphotonics is offering training seminars on Photonic Design Automation for core and metro WDM systems, optical access networks, doped-fiber amplifiers and lasers as well as active devices and circuits.
Experts in the field of photonic modeling lead guided tours, provide lectures on various application topics, and are available for questions and support during individual lab exercises.
The seminar outline can be customized. Design topics include:
- Graphical User Interface features
- Overview of signal models and simulation techniques
- Parameter sweeps and optimizations
- Visualization and post-processing of simulation results
- Scripted simulations and automated system design.
A wide selection of application scenarios can be discussed:
- Loss-limitations and receiver sensitivity measurements
- Fiber dispersion and compensation techniques
- Nonlinear fiber impairments (SPM,XPM,FWM,SRS)
- Polarization Mode Dispersion, emulation and compensation techniques
- Estimation of BER,Q-factor,eye-closure penalty
- Advanced modulation formats for robust/high data-rate systems
- Doped-fiber lasers andd amplifiers
- Hybrid (EDF/Raman) amplification and Raman pump optimization
- Active Photonics Circuits
- Optical access technologies supporting analog and digital services
- Radio-over-Fiber applications
- Co-simulation (integration of 3rd party code)
- Other interests...please specify!
The two to five day courses take place at a VPIsystems sponsored location or onsite at customer's premises. VPIphotonics also offers seminars online periodically. These online seminars will be announced on this page, so check back regularly.
