MINT 718 - Optical Network Engineering

★ 3 (fi 6) (variable, 36 hours) MINT 718 addresses the theory and practice of high-capacity optical access and transport networks. Experience is gained designing and characterizing optical links, configuring various forms of transport protection and restoration (linear 1+1, UPSR and BLSR rings), and designing gigabit passive optical (GPON) access networks. Restricted to students who are admitted via the Engineering route. Offered jointly by the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering and the Department of Computing Science.
