K. Kazi et E. Donkor, VHDL AS A MODELING AND SIMULATION PLATFORM FOR OPTICAL COMMUNICATION-SYSTEMS AND DEVICES, Optical engineering, 34(5), 1995, pp. 1450-1455
A behavioral model of a wavelength-division multiplexing communication
network for transporting data at SONET/SDH OC-192 using VHDL is descr
ibed. VHDL simulation results are given for the SONET frame generator,
electrical-to-optical conversion, data transporter, and optical-to-el
ectrical conversion. Relative bit delay, due to wavelength dispersion,
between adjacent bits is included in the model of a 10-km transmissio
n link.
