Optiwave software can be used in different industries and applications, including Fiber Optic Communication, Sensing, Pharma/Bio, Military & Satcom, Test & Measurement, Fundamental Research, Solar Panels, Components / Devices, etc..
OptiSystem is a comprehensive software design suite that enables users to plan, test, and simulate optical links in the transmission layer of modern optical networks.
OptiSPICE is the first circuit design software for analysis of integrated circuits including interactions of optical and electronic components. It allows for the design and simulation of opto-electronic circuits at the transistor level, from laser drivers to transimpedance amplifiers, optical interconnects and electronic equalizers.
OptiFDTD is a powerful, highly integrated, and user friendly CAD environment that enables the design and simulation of advanced passive and non-linear photonic components.
OptiBPM is a comprehensive CAD environment used for the design of complex optical waveguides. Perform guiding, coupling, switching, splitting, multiplexing, and demultiplexing of optical signals in photonic devices.
OptiFiber The optimal design of a given optical communication system depends directly on the choice of fiber parameters. OptiFiber uses numerical mode solvers and other models specialized to fibers for calculating dispersion, losses, birefringence, and PMD.
Emerging as a de facto standard over the last decade, OptiGrating has delivered powerful and user friendly design software for modeling integrated and fiber optic devices that incorporate optical gratings.
OptiConverge is a collaborative integration framework that seamlessly combines two or more Optiwave products (e.g., OptiSystem, OptiSPICE, OptiFDTD, etc.) and other third party products into unified solutions. Designed to streamline complex workflows, it empowers users to achieve their goals faster by harnessing the collective power of our trusted Optiwave tools.

To run the simulation, perform the following procedure.
Step
Action
1
From the Simulation menu, select Calculate 2D Isotropic Simulation.
The Simulation Parameters dialog box appears (see Figure 19).
Figure 19: Simulation Parameters dialog box
2
To start the simulation, click Run.
The OptiBPM_Simulator appears and the simulation starts.
Note: The simulation in this lesson is short, therefore it will finish quickly.
At the end of the simulation, a prompt box appears (see Figure 20).

To open the OptiBPM_Analyzer, click Yes.
Note: While the simulation is running, to select the type of view for the simulation, at the bottom of the simulation window, click one of the following tabs:
• Layout
• Optical Field (2D or 3D)
• Refractive Index (2D or 3D)
Note: To display the 2D view, click the Image Map button . To return to the 3D views, click the Height Plot button
• Cut View
When the simulation is finished, you are asked whether you want to launch the OptiBPM_Analyzer. Click Yes to open the analyzer.
Note: You do not need to close the simulator in order to open the analyzer.
To leave the OptiBPM_Simulator open, click No when the dialog box appears asking whether to exit (see Figure 21).
