About this Event

Title: Simulation Workshop @ OFC: Modeling CPO/LPO Systems for Data Center Interconnects

When: Sunday, March 15th | 1–5pm | Check-in and software setup starts at 12:30pm

Where: Serendipity Labs - Los Angeles Wilshire 915 Wilshire Blvd 7th Floor, Los Angeles, CA 90017, USA. Just minutes away from the LA convention center.

How to get there from the LA Convention Center: Take Metro Line A or E from Pico to 7th Street/Metro Station (one stop), then walk 5 minutes to Flower Street and turn left onto Wilshire Blvd. and enter the building labeled '915'.

Description: Bring your own laptop and join us for an in-person hands-on workshop exploring how to simulate and optimize CPO- and LPO-based transceiver design for intra data center systems using VPIphotonics Design Suite. You will learn to:

  • Model photonic components for Co-Packaged Optics and full systems for Linear Pluggable Optics
  • Assess and mitigate performance-limiting effects using DSP and ML techniques
  • Analyze the behavior of SiP-based PICs for a PAM-4 WDM data center link

This interactive workshop includes a 4-hour session of lectures, guided labs, and independent work with 1-on-1 support. Attendees will be provided access to the software in a cloud-based environment using their private laptops.

This training targets students, early-stage professionals, engineers, and researchers who want to learn how to utilize a professional simulation and design environment. Basic knowledge of the various transmission systems' technologies, concepts, and methodologies is helpful.

What You’ll Get:

  • Direct access to VPIphotonics Design Suite via cloud and remote desktop connection
  • Practical experience designing and analyzing transmission systems based on recommendations from standardization committees or multi-source agreements (MSAs)
  • Practical experience designing and analyzing SiP-based PICs
  • Guidance from experienced photonic simulation experts
  • A chance to explore the integration of Digital Signal Processing and Machine Learning in photonic system design

Seats are limited to 35 to provide attendees with direct access to our team of experts, so reserve your spot today!

Note: Registration for OFC is not required.
