Abstract

This paper presents a system capable of static and dynamic simulationsof heterogeneous opto-electronic systems. It is capable ofmodeling Gaussian optical signal propagation with mechanicaltolerancing at the system level. We present results which demonstratethe system's ability to predict the effects of various componentparameters, such as detector geometry, and system levelparameters, such as alignment tolerances, on system performance.
