Fiber Optic Receiver Preamplifier Design.

Abstract

This report describes the technical problems associated with the design of wide bandwidth, low noise optical receivers for use within fiber optic communication systems. Noise model analysis is performed for three detection techniques using preamplifiers (resistive loading, transimpedance and high impedance). A Low Noise High Impedance Preamplifier Design is presented as well as a prototype Ultra High Gain Wide-Band Transimpedance Preamplifier. Component values are shown to allow easy implementation of the designs. (Author)
