Introduction

There are the two main approaches used in optical multiplexing. One is optical wavelength division (frequency division) other is optical time division Multiplexing. This paper deals with optical time division Multiplexing.
In optical time division Multiplexing (OTDM), a high bit rate streams constructed directly by time multiplexing several lower bit rate. At the receiver end of the system very high bit rate data streams demultiplexed into the lower bit streams before detection and conversion to the electrical signals. This is used for very high data transmission. The technique of time division Multiplexing is purely digital technique. OTDM offer design flexibility, adjustable bandwidth allocation in different baseband channel and simple architecture. …show more content…

Time division Multiplexing based on the three sub section: sampling, timing and combining. The function of sampling takes sample of the incoming bit. Timing function ensures that the samples are available at the correct time slots on the multiplexed channel. The combining (multiplexing) of all the sampled baseband data streams to generate the higher bit rate multiplexed data stream. Fig1 Schematic of an E/O converter that sample input data
Fig.1 shows the conversion of an electrical to optical. In this laser diode is used which operate at 1550 nm frequency range with 0dbm power. Signal from Laser diode and Electrically data stream i.e. NRZ is incident on an optical modulator (AM Modulator). When the laser and input data are correctly timed, the modulator is either fully ‘on’ or ‘off’ when optical pulses passes through it
Before the multiplexing operation is performed the incoming bit streams are temporally offset from one another by delay for four channels i.e. 25ps, 30ps, 35ps, 40ps. 4*1 multiplexer is used in this paper. And it assembles the higher bit stream from the baseband signal. It also reduces crosstalk.
