Project Description and Objectives:
The rapid development of data centers and high-performance computers demands massive connectivity to orchestrate geographically distributed heterogeneous computation capabilities. Optical interconnects have been inevitable solutions to provide Tbps class transmission capacity to accommodate the increasing demand for high-speed interconnects. Advanced equalizations have been proposed to provide powerful linear and nonlinear compensation for bandwidth and noise-limited optical interconnects. In this project, equalization algorithms will be designed and evaluated regarding the computation complexity and transmission performance for the integrated optical interconnects through an in-depth understanding of the connection of the algorithm and physical implication.
Eligibility Requirements:
Basic understanding of photonics, communication principles.
Main Tasks:
Learn the basics of integrated optical interconnects.
Simulation and experiment evaluation of the integrated optical interconnects.
Off-line signal processing and performance evaluation of equalization through the data collected through simulation and experiments.
