The One Gigabit or Bust™ Initiative • The Mission • Establish an action plan that will bring one gigabit to every home, business, and school in California by 2010. • Our job = catalyzing innovation California has the most to gain from action and the most to lose by inaction. — The Gartner Report

Next Generation Broadband • “It’s not about capacity. It’s about the capabilities made available by the capacity.” Nitin Shaw, Arraycom • Historical evolution of bandwidth requirements support one gigabit per second by 2010 • We need the big red circle.
Broadband and Economic Development • Broadband equals J-O-B-S • Gartner study said 2 million new jobs in California • “No business will settle in a town that doesn’t have broadband access.” NYT, 3/24/04 • Question: • What had made your communities think about installing next generation broadband? Are you losing jobs? Do you think broadband helps with business development?

Source Fiber Coupling - II Schematic of a typical assembly of coupling optics Transmitters employing a) butt-coupling and b) lens-coupling designs
Extinction Ratio Penalty If the transmitter does not turn all the way “off” during the transmission of a “zero” then the extinction ratio r ( the ratio to a power transmitted during a “0” to that during a “1”) will cause a bit error rate penalty and a reduction in sensitivity. For a PIN receiver the peak power required for a given signal to noise ratio will become: r=0 if the optical signal is completely extinguished during a logical “0” r=1 if the optical power during a “0” equals that during a “1” in this case the power required approaches ¥ For APD detectors with gain the effect of the multiplied noise during the “0” is more severe, this case is shown in the graph to the left. k is the ratio of the hole and electron ionization coefficients and is a property of the material in the avalanche multiplication region
Traditional Laser Transmitter Approaches Use a transmission line and impedance match Keep it close and don’t worry about the match

Polarization • In molecules, P=μ+αE+βE2+γE3+… • In materials, P=X(o)+X(1)E+X(2)E2+X(3)E3+… If multiple electric fields are applied, every possible cross term is generated. At sufficiently high values of E, quadratic or higher terms become important and nonlinear effects are induced in the fiber.
