Sixth Van Der Meulen Seminar having as topic
鈥淚nformation Theory and Fiber-Optic Communication鈥
听
with a lecture by Prof. Gerhard Kramer, Distinguished Lecturer of the 江南体育 Information Theory Society.
听
Optical fiber carries the bulk of the world's data traffic through long, thin strands of glass. Despite their importance, the capacity of fiber-optic channels is unknown, mainly because the underlying physical model described by the generalized nonlinear Schr枚dinger equation (GNLSE) cannot be easily translated in convincing channel models. The 6th Van der Meulen Seminar focuses on new directions in studying capacity and on developing coding techniques for optical fiber communications.
