8. Proprietary & Confidential8 What Is Coherent Communications? Direct detection systems currently deployed sensitive only to INTENSITY of light detects whether the light is ‘on’ or ‘off’ Coherent systems sensitive to PHASE of light received light mixed with local laser oscillator optical gain at the receiver Analogous to AM versus FM radio substantial technology advancement increased transmission distances significantly improved signal quality

9. Proprietary & Confidential9 Why Coherent? Improved receiver sensitivity “Up to 20 dB” 1 improvement over direct detection “Up to an additional 100 km” 1 in transmission distance at same power (1) Govind Agrawal - Fiber Optic Communications. Efficient use of fiber  spacing of 5-10 GHz are required to get >10 X MORE DATA within existing dispersion limits High flexibility transparent optical network REDUCED COST PER TRANSMITTED BIT!
