Title: The Innovations of Periklis Petropoulis
Introduction
Periklis Petropoulis is a notable inventor based in Patras, Greece. He has made significant contributions to the field of optical communications, particularly through his innovative patent related to optical code generation and detection.
Latest Patents
Periklis holds a patent for an Optical Code Division Multiple Access (OCDMA) coder:decoder gratings. This invention involves the fabrication of gratings that incorporate changes in polarity between OCDMA chips through discrete phase shifts. This method allows for bipolar coding via phase modulation, and in another embodiment, quadrupolar coding is achieved. The patent demonstrates that for Non-Return-to-Zero (NRZ) modulation, each grating section can either be in phase with or have a predetermined phase shift relative to the preceding section, depending on the OCDMA signature's polarity changes. Additionally, Return-to-Zero (RZ) modulation is also feasible. The results from specific examples of bipolar OCDMA with NRZ modulation indicate higher data rates of 10 Gbit/s, shorter chip lengths of 6.4 ps, and significantly longer code sequences of 63 bits compared to previous demonstrations. Other embodiments of his work relate to optical packet switching, including applications using the Internet Protocol (IP) or Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM).
