Evaluation of a microring resonator's performance for optical soliton communication system

Transmission of optical signals in today’s telecommunication system is facing lots of technical problems. The solution lies on a particular type of light wave known as optical soliton. These light pulses will be the perfect solution for transmitting signals and also digital data in communication sys...

description Transmission of optical signals in today’s telecommunication system is facing lots of technical problems. The solution lies on a particular type of light wave known as optical soliton.
