Name of Guide :Dr. Deepa Venkitesh
Year of Joining: 2019
Research Topic: Optical signal processing using semiconductor optical amplifiers
Position: PhD

Background:

  • Pursued B.Tech in Electronics and Communication at Rajagiri school of Engineering and technology, Kochi, Kerala in 2013.
  • Pursued M.Tech in Optoelectronics and Communication Systems at Govt. Model Engineering College, Kochi, Kerala in 2015.

Current Research:

The semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs) are gaining interest due to their compactibility and wide range of applications in optical signal processing. The four wave mixing processes in SOAs demands very less power and hence can be exploited for phase sensitive amplification, optical phase conjugation and phase quantization. The modulation formats incorporating phase would demand lesser phase distortions and phase quantization could be one solution to it.
