The recent field focuses on DWDM (Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing), which uses
the bandwidth provided by optical fiber to increase data rate requirements. In this thesis
analysis, the DWDM system using Erbium Doped Fiber Amplifier (EDFA) with PMD
(Polarization Mode Dispersion) is carried out in C-band. The performance of a 4-channel
DWDM system with high-performance data rates of 10 Gbps and 20 Gbps has been analyzed.
Modelling an optical fiber connection with the program OPTISYSTEM is used to investigate
the performance of optical communication system by using RZ (Return to Zero), NRZ (Non-Return to Zero), and DB (Duo-Binary) modulation formats. According to the modulated
outputs, a comprehensive comparison in terms of Q- factor (Quality factor), BER (Bit Error
Rate), and OSNR (Optical Signal to Noise Ratio) is developed to establish the advantages and
disadvantages of the coding formats in short and long- haul optical fiber communication
system.
For fixed input power (0dBm) and variable fiber length at 10 Gbps data rate with and without
PMD, RZ performs well for short and NRZ for long distance communication. For the same
condition at the data rate of 20 Gbps, NRZ works well for short and NRZ-DB for long distance
communication. Also for variable input power and fixed fiber length (100km) at 10 Gbps data
rate with and without PMD, NRZ performs well for the given input powers. For the same
condition, NRZ-DB works well for the given input powers at the data rate of 20 Gbps and RZ
without PMD and NRZ with PMD has a strong OSNR value for this data rate.
Generally, PMD affects the performance of transmission because it decreases the Q-factor and
OSNR value of our transmission for the PMD coefficient of 0.5ps/sqrt (km).Also this PMD
coefficient influences NRZ to have no long distance performance and RZ to have no good
performance for the given input powers at data rate of 20Gbps
