Abstract

Nowadays, the optical communications systems have vital role in the communication field. Though the optical communications systems have many advantageous conditions, the dispersion was considered one of the main problems. This paper aims to investigate the impact of dispersion and attenuation on the performance of optical high-speed networks, by using Opti-System 2021 simulation tool, this study measures the key performance parameters within a basic optic link to characterize a transmission system comprehensively. Opti-system 21 software has been used to simulate single mode fiber over different distances of transmission. In addition, the operating wavelength has been used over the range of 1,550 nm to analyze the impact of attenuation and dispersion along the transmission length through computer simulations. By analyzing these effects, this study offers insights into optimizing network design and performance in order to enhance the data transmission and reliability through optical communication systems. Furthermore, the effective wavelength has been utilized over the range of 1,550 nm to study the impact of attenuation and dispersion along the transmission length through computer simulations. By investigating these properties, these paper proposals perceptions into optimizing networks designs and presentation in order to improve the data transmission and reliability through optical communications systems, this study dealings the main performance parameters within an essential optical communication.
