Optical Telecomm Sensors and Controls1 min read

I spent a few years in the fascinating world of optical telecommunications designing and building in-system an in-spectrum analyzer, tunable filter controller, and an InGaAs (indium gallium arsenide) pixel-array power monitor.

This work offered many unique challenges and experiences with fascinating equipment, instrumentation, control system design, and DSP techniques incorporating phased-lock loops, sensor interface FPGA logic design, and micro-electromechanical (MEM) mirror interfacing.
