Optiwave software can be used in different industries and applications, including Fiber Optic Communication, Sensing, Pharma/Bio, Military & Satcom, Test & Measurement, Fundamental Research, Solar Panels, Components / Devices, etc..
OptiSystem is a comprehensive software design suite that enables users to plan, test, and simulate optical links in the transmission layer of modern optical networks.
OptiInstrument addresses the needs of researchers, scientists, photonic engineers, professors and students who are working with instruments.
OptiSPICE is the first circuit design software for analysis of integrated circuits including interactions of optical and electronic components. It allows for the design and simulation of opto-electronic circuits at the transistor level, from laser drivers to transimpedance amplifiers, optical interconnects and electronic equalizers.
OptiFDTD is a powerful, highly integrated, and user friendly CAD environment that enables the design and simulation of advanced passive and non-linear photonic components.
OptiBPM is a comprehensive CAD environment used for the design of complex optical waveguides. Perform guiding, coupling, switching, splitting, multiplexing, and demultiplexing of optical signals in photonic devices.
The optimal design of a given optical communication system depends directly on the choice of fiber parameters. OptiFiber uses numerical mode solvers and other models specialized to fibers for calculating dispersion, losses, birefringence, and PMD.
Emerging as a de facto standard over the last decade, OptiGrating has delivered powerful and user friendly design software for modeling integrated and fiber optic devices that incorporate optical gratings.

Hello Optiwave,
I was wondering if there was a way to model a lens in an FSO simulation. I have not been able to find a component that fits the description of a lens. I thought about using an optical amplifier or just increasing the receiver aperture diameter in the FSO Channel component, but I do not believe that would simulate all of the properties of a lens. I have not done too much research on what I need to try to model for a lens, but I figured I would ask you before I tried to model a lens myself, just in case there is already a model out there.
If you know of any ways of modeling a lens in an FSO simulation, I would greatly appreciate if you would be able to share it with me so I can model the system that I am working on.
Thank you,

Dear Jacob,
The “Free Space Optics” directory in OptiSystem 16.1 has one component called “LOS Channel”. It is used to be called “Diffuse Channel” in older versions. The LOS channel is the proper name. This component has a lens model build in it, where users can enter “Optical concentrator factor” to setup the gain of the lens and set up the lens index of refractive. You could check the component’s datasheet for more information. You can access it by clicking the help button in the component properties window.
Regard,
Ahmad
