[MHD NA]

Hi everyone;
i work on optisystem 7 and want to design RoF using MZI (Mach-Zehnder interformeter),unfortunately i didn’t find this component MZI.
i found MZM, so how i can change MZM to MZI or what can i do?

Thanks;

Hi Sam Sung;
I know the component you tell me about, but i need MZI with one input and one output as in other simulation softwares.
Do you have any idea about that?
Thanks for help

Hi Mohammad, Could you specify the application you want this component to have in your system? In other words, what change is exactly supposed to be made to the single input of this component in the output? because you might be able to get the performance you have in mind using the available Mach-Zehnder Interferometer. Thank You.

hi Mahammed, as far as i know MZI switch has two input ports and two output.Even i have read some papers and their diagrams indicates about coupler two ports.One thing you can do that connect null signal to one port as i have seen in DPSK receiver.But didint get exactly which MZI switch you referring to.Even i have looked it in another software,component is same as in optisystem.

Thank you Mohammad. Could you also address a paper in which this structure has been used, so I would read more about what the MZI does here?
