Abstract

Highly integrated communication systems are required to fulfill the growing demand for higher data rates in telecommunication networks. The optical fiber links are the best candidates to deal with large volumes of data since they provide superior performance compared to conventional electrical links in terms of bandwidth, channel loss, electromagnetic interference, reflection, and crosstalk.
