RE: [EFM] 10/29 EFM FEC Conf Call



Vipul,

May I suggest the term "laser cycle time" instead of "laser on time", because it does includes all of the "off" times, "ramp" times, etc, in addition to just the "on" time.

Thank you,
Roy Bynum

Ariel,

A couple of quick clarifications, please.

You've defined a variable called "laser on time", but you mean the
sum of laser off time, laser on time, AGC settling time and CDR lock
time - is that correct?

Also, your spreadsheet refers to "split ratio", but your analysis is
valid for the general situation where it doesn't have to be the
physical number of splits; it can be interpreted as number of guard
bands (or slots or grants) - is that correct?

Perhaps these interpretations are obvious to some, but I wanted to
be clear because we may be discussing this topic in the general
session on the 14th. Thanks.

Vipul
