Pyofss allows construction of an optical fibre system from separate modules. A typical system consists of a Gaussian pulse generator module and an optical fibre module. The field generated is propagated through the fibre by numerical integration of an appropriate Schrödinger-type equation.

Simulated effects include that of dispersion (second, third, and higher order), attenuation, self-phase modulation, self-steepening, and Raman scattering. Resulting field profiles (including multiple traces for the fibre module) can be visualised using a range of plot types. These include standard x-y plots, top-down "map" plots, three-dimensional "waterfall" plots, and animation videos.

Installation

Pyofss is available on PyPI and can be retrieved using the pip program:

System Message: ERROR/3 (<string>, line 19)

Unknown directive type "code-block".

.. code-block:: bash

   sudo aptitude install python-pip
   pip install pyofss

Then import pyofss within scripts or in an interactive session:

System Message: ERROR/3 (<string>, line 26)

Unknown directive type "code-block".

.. code-block:: pycon

   >>> import pyofss

Dependencies

Pyofss depends on Numpy, Scipy, and Matplotlib. They can be installed on Linux distributions using aptitude:

System Message: ERROR/3 (<string>, line 36)

Unknown directive type "code-block".

.. code-block:: bash

   sudo aptitude install python-numpy python-scipy python-matplotlib

Note

The recommended dependency versions are listed in the requirements.txt file within the pyofss package. Install each of these dependencies using pip:

System Message: ERROR/3 (<string>, line 45)

Unknown directive type "code-block".

.. code-block:: bash

   pip install -r requirements.txt

Development

It is recommended to install pyofss into a virtual environment, which can be initialised using:

System Message: ERROR/3 (<string>, line 54)

Unknown directive type "code-block".

.. code-block:: bash

   sudo aptitude install python-virtualenv
   sudo pip install virtualenvwrapper
   mkvirtualenv pyofss
   workon pyofss

Pyofss dependencies can then be satisfied using:

System Message: ERROR/3 (<string>, line 63)

Unknown directive type "code-block".

.. code-block:: bash

   pip install numpy
   pip install scipy
   sudo aptitude build-dep python-matplotlib
   pip install matplotlib

Install the latest development version of pyofss from GitHub:

System Message: ERROR/3 (<string>, line 72)

Unknown directive type "code-block".

.. code-block:: bash

   pip install git+https://github.com/daibo/pyofss.git

Tests

Tests can be run within the pyofss package:

System Message: ERROR/3 (<string>, line 81)

Unknown directive type "code-block".

.. code-block:: bash

   python setup.py test
