Improved Low Confinement Photonic Crystal Fiber with Ultra Flattened Dispersion
Abstract: AbstractIn this study, to obtain lower value of dispersion with flatness for wideband, more complicated design will be proposed with multiple-hole diameter and shapes. Confinement loss is also reduced by increasing the number of rings. We optimized cladding region in which there are holes of different diameter and shapes. Numerical investigation shows that value of confinement loss is very low -0.00116 dB/Km and ultra-flat dispersion over wideband at operating frequency …

Multi-way Protection Scheme to Handle Multiple Failures for Cost-Efficient Fiber-Wireless (FiWi) Access Networks
Abstract: AbstractFiber Wireless (FiWi) access networks prove themselves as promising broadband access networks. These networks enable users to access services in “Anywhere-Anytime” fashion. FiWi networks offer higher bandwidth and better flexibility at much lower price than passive optical network. As FiWi supports high data rate (typically about Gigabits per second), any failure may results in huge data loss. Therefore, to protect such loss of data, we need to design a more …
