Training on Design of High Speed Transmission Systems

VPIphotonics is offering three days of training in Berlin and Boston locations. Two of these days will cover the simulation and design of high speed optical transmission systems. One optional day, preceding this advanced two-day course, is offered for those who are unfamiliar with VPItransmissionMaker Optical Systems, so they can get acquainted with the software and learn about efficient modeling techniques.


The hands-on 2 day seminar is tailored for experienced users of VPItransmissionMaker Optical Systems who are interested in the modeling and investigation of technologies for direct modulation / direct detection and digital coherent transmission systems.

VPIphotonics modeling experts will lead attendees through guided software demos, provide lectures on simulation methodologies and various application topics, and are available for questions and support during lab exercises. VPIphotonics will provide computers and software licenses for the duration of the training.
