Fiber Optic Transceivers In Basestation Applications
10/9/2009
The enormous increase in cellular telephone usage has created demand, additional network capacity, and bandwidth. Cellular network capacity growth is driven by new cell phone functions and services such as cameras, personal organizers, web browsing, e-mail, and text messaging. Base station transceivers with greater bandwidth are in demand. Fiber optic links give cost effective, high bandwidth new capacity with more flexibility than copper links. Fiber links make system modifications and future upgrades simpler than would be possible with traditional copper links. In addition, fiber features inherent data security and superior reliability in hostile environments. By Avago Technologies

Fiber Bragg Grating Dispersion Compensation Enables Cost-Efficient Submarine Optical Transport
5/11/2009
Undersea optical transport is an important part of the infrastructure making up the world-spanning digital transport network. Due to extreme link length and stringent reliability requirements, this important part of the optical backbone poses quite a challenge compared to the more conventional terrestrial systems hence specific technical solutions are required. This article discusses how the unique properties and design possibilities relating to Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG)-based dispersion compensation technology can facilitate desirable cost savings by supporting new terminal designs and link optimized compensations.
