Design and Simulation of an Optical Fiber Communication System Using MATLAB
Abstract: Optical fiber communication is widely used for high-capacity data transmission because of its large bandwidth, low attenuation, immunity to electromagnetic interference, and support for wavelength-division multiplexing. These properties make fiber a fundamental medium in access, enterprise, submarine, and backbone networks, where high data rates, low error probability, and reliable transmission over distances ranging from buildings and campuses to metropolitan and long-haul links are required. This paper presents a MATLAB-oriented design …

Machine Learning Based Optimization of Optical Fiber Parameters for Minimizing Dispersion and Attenuation
Abstract: Optical fibers provide high-bandwidth and low-loss transmission for modern communication networks; however, attenuation and chromatic dispersion remain two important physical limitations affecting transmission distance, pulse integrity, and system capacity. Conventional optical-fiber design generally relies on analytical calculations and repeated numerical simulations to determine suitable geometric and material parameters. Such approaches become computationally demanding when several fiber parameters are simultaneously optimized. This paper presents a machine-learning-based methodology for predicting and optimizing …
