Introduction
Singapore has been completely wired up by fibre optic network for broadband transmission of voice, video and data. The objective of this course is to get familiarize and understand the different types of fibres used in optical network; understanding the light propagation principles, type of optical sources and detector. In addition, the power budget and bandwidth budget calculation will be discussed to estimate the link performance.
This course is part of:
- Graduate Certificate in Information and Telecommunication Engineering
- FlexiMasters
in Information and Telecommunication Engineering
On completion of the course, the learners should be able to:
Various types of fibres, and the propagation principles and refractive index profiles descriptions
Selection of system components like laser diode/LED, PIN/APD receiver
LED and laser diode operating principles, PIN and APD receiver specifications and absorption mechanisms
Design samples
Design examples will be discussed with few case studies
For aspiring engineers and Information technologists who wish to improve their knowledge and skills in the broad area of communication engineering.
