Study Subject: The PhD
study will be based on numerical simulations (i.e. using tools like MATLAB,
VPITtransmission Maker etc.) as well as on experimental verifications in the
lab at high transmission speeds in the order of 100 GS/s. Topics for study
include:
– Ways of incorporating features like chromatic dispersion, fiber
non-linearities, Raman amplification, and decide which implementations give the
best phase noise tolerance.
– Mitigation of component imperfections in system context.
– Modulation techniques that are interesting are coherent n-level Phase Shift
Keying (PSK) and Quadrature Amplitude Modulated (QAM) systems as well OFDM
systems.
Course Level: Position is open for undertaking PhD research project.
Scholarship Provider: Swedish ICT and the Research Institute Acreo
Scholarship can be taken at: Stockholm, Sweden
