• Applicant: Professor Dr.-Ing. Norbert Hanik
• Subject Area: Electronic Semiconductors, Components and Circuits, Integrated Systems, Sensor Technology, Theoretical Electrical Engineering
• Term: from 2020 to 2022
• Project identifier: Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 438827315

The renewal project will explore the following topics for fiber-opticcommunication: (1) Investigate methods to maximize the transmission capacity of systems using Nonlinear Frequency Division Multiplexing (NFDM);(2) Nonlinear and quasi-linear multiplexing of channels generated by the Nonlinear Fourier Transform (NFT); (3) Evaluation of alternative fiber types for NFT-transmission;(4) Influence of manufacturing process dependent system impairments on NFDM systems
