  • Sensitivity Analysis of Optical Receiver Module

    Sensitivity Analysis of Optical Receiver Module

    This application note provides an in-depth analysis of the complete receiver optical sensitivity and the potential power penalties related to the accumulation of random noise and inter-symbol interference (ISI) in both amplitude and timing. In optical communication systems, sensitivity is a measure of how weak an input signal can get before the bit-error ratio (BER) exceeds some specified number. The standards body governing the application sets this specified BER. To make a good optical receiver design, it is critical to understand the. Transmitter power characterizes the average optical power output from the laser under rated conditions, while receiver sensitivity indicates the minimum detectable power required to maintain a low bit error rate. It specifies a module's capability to perform in harsh environments and helps network operators determine the maximum reach or link margin available in the system.
