Advanced Optical Communication
Explore advanced optical communication concepts in this comprehensive course from the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay. Delve into the fundamentals of light, including ray and wave models, before examining signal distortion and practical fiber link implementation. Study optical sources, with a focus on light-emitting diodes and lasers, and learn about photon detectors, optical receivers, and fiber optic link design. Investigate wavelength division multiplexed systems, integrated optics, and non-linear fiber optics, including topics such as the non-linear Schrödinger equation, group velocity dispersion, and solitonic communication. Gain hands-on experience through laboratory experiments and reinforce your understanding with tutorial sessions.
