Zusammenfassung: Photonic transmission technology is required in communication networks of all kind – from access to long haul and submarine. Moreover, optical multimode, free-space, polymer and on-chip communication channels are becoming ever-more important in other types of applications, including sensor networks, free space communications, and feeding radio over fiber. For many advanced applications, simple data communications approaches, such as intensity modulation with direct detection, are no longer adequate given data impairments, increased system capacity, and required spectral efficiency. As an example, more advanced equalizer and forward error correction (FEC) technologies are now penetrating into high-end metro and core networks as well as into lower-end short MMF link equipment. The system gain has been quite dramatic, adding several dBs of performance.
