Ultrafast optoelectronic characterisation for optical and wireless systems

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Ultra-fast optoelectronic characterisation for optical and wireless systems: The project aims to establish an ultra-fast optoelectronic characterisation facility to measure a wide range of electronic and photonic signals, providing versatile tools for conducting research on ultra-high-speed optical communications, microwave photonics, and millimetre wave systems. There is an increasing need for parallel signalling using spatial, temporal and spectral degrees of freedom in both radio-frequency and optical communications. The facility expects to leverage the recent rapid advances in powerful silicon digital signal processors with unprecedented capabilities in bandwidth and accuracy and focus on detecting massively parallel signals. The project aims to support a wide range of research activities from sustaining the phenomenal Internet growth in telecommunications to strengthening Australia’s defence systems.
