Wavelength Division Multiplexing All

In fiber-optic communications, wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) is a technology which multiplexes a number of optical carrier signals onto a single optical fiber by using different wavelengths (i. Ginzton Laboratory, Stanford University, Stanford, CA 94305, USA †gahn@stanford. WDM allows communication in both the directions in the fiber cable. To begin with, we assume that we have the element parameters from a known process design kit (PDK). This allows multiple channels of data to be transmitted simultaneously.
