Fiber optics has been the center of all modern telecommunications with its capacity for high-speed, long-distance internet that many enjoy today. However, the continuing demand for internet traffic ...

In space exploration, long-distance optical links can now be used to transmit images, films and data from space probes to Earth using light. But in order for the signals to reach all the way and not ...

Communications in space demand the most sensitive receivers possible for maximum reach, while also requiring high bit-rate operations. A novel concept for laser-beam based communications, using an ...

Traditional small satellites are limited to single-polarization. This new technology allows them to use dual-polarization, effectively doubling their communication capacity and improving performance ...

An insatiable demand for bandwidth in our multimedia society is forcing system designers to focus efforts on the inevitable: systems operating at 40 Gbps And whether working on optical or electrical ...

A technical paper titled “Optimizing the Photodetector/Analog Front-End Interface in Optical Communication Receivers” was published by researchers at University of Toronto. “This article addresses the ...

In this paper, we describe the effects of timing and gain mismatches on the sampled signal in the general case of M-channel time-interleaved analog-to-digital converters (TI-ADCs) and propose a ...

In the new communication system from researchers at Chalmers University of Technology, in Sweden, a weak optical signal (red) from the spacecraft's transmitter can be amplified noise-free when it ...
