About this event

Modern system design increasingly requires multidisciplinary engineering and the co-simulation of multiple physical domains, including photonics, high-speed electronics, RF, electromagnetics, and thermal effects. While specialized numerical solvers and design tools address each domain independently, integrating device-level models into circuit- and system-level simulations remains a major challenge. Model interoperability, computational complexity, and fragmented workflows can limit design efficiency and prevent accurate prediction of end-to-end system performance.

This webinar presents a unified Keysight workflow for modeling and validating advanced technologies from fundamental device physics to complete system operation. The workflow combines electromagnetic and multiphysics simulation, compact-model generation, photonic integrated-circuit design, and electrical–optical–electrical (EOE) system simulation.

A multichannel WDM PAM4 optical link is presented as an application example. Particular emphasis is placed on the design and optimization of photonic devices and components, including modulators, resonators, and filters, as well as on converting their physics-based simulation results into reusable compact models. These filter models are then used to implement WDM multiplexers and demultiplexers, which are integrated with electrical PAM4 sources, lasers, optical channels, photodetectors, and receiver circuitry to evaluate end-to-end system performance.

Who should attend this event?


This webinar is ideal for PIC designers, photonic device engineers, optical communication architects, compact modeling and PDK engineers, multiphysics simulation specialists, researchers, and engineering managers seeking a unified workflow from device physics to end-to-end system simulation.
