AIM: To design and evaluate the performance of a DWDM system at


different channel spacing using optical simulation tools like Optisystem.
List of components:
1. WDM transmitter
2. Ideal mux
3. optical fiber
4. WDM demux
5. Optical spectrum analyzer
6. BER analyzer
7. Optical amplifier
8. Optical reciver

Theory: Dense wavelength-division multiplexing (DWDM) is an


optical fiber multiplexing technology that is used to increase the
bandwidth of existing fiber networks. It combines data signals from
different sources over a single pair of optical fiber, while maintaining
complete separation of the data streams.
A separate light wavelength carries each signal, and the dense in
DWDM refers to its ability to accommodate up to 80 different
wavelengths. Each wavelength is about 0.8 nanometer wide and shares a
single optical fiber.
Fiber optic cables now commonly form the backbone of carriers'
interoffice networks, representing the standard for the
telecommunications infrastructure. DWDM enables enormous amounts
of data to traverse a single network link by creating multiple virtual
fibers, significantly multiplying the capacity of the physical medium.

As data flows through distinct wavelengths, the streams or channels do


not interfere with each other. This approach helps maintain data
integrity. As a result, this enables security-related partitioning or
separate tenants in the same data center.
Because of its ability to handle so much data, DWDM is popular with
telecommunications and cable companies. It is an integral part of their
core networks. DWDM is also highly suitable for anyone running
densely populated data centers, such as hyperscale cloud service
providers operating infrastructure as a service or colocation providers
with dense multi-tenant spaces.

DWDM is a predecessor to a similar technology: time-division


multiplexing (TDM), which telecommunications operators use to
routinely transmit information at 2.4 gigabits per second (Gbps) on a
single fiber. Some also deploy equipment that quadruples that rate to 10
Gbps. However, demand for high-bandwidth applications created
capacity demands that exceeded traditional TDM limits.

SIMULATION RESULTS:
a) Frequency spacing = 0.2nm
b) Frequency spacing = 0.8nm

c) Frequency spacing = 1.6nm


Conclusion:
Hence different parameters are observed by passing the data through
WDM transmitter.
