description This research explained how to establish the optical receiver sensitivity and the link power budget design in terms of quality factor, receiver power and bit error rate (BER) for several values of attenuation at 100km fiber length. The design parameters which were taken into consideration were a constricted transmitter, Zender modulator, attenuator, lowpass Bessel filter, Non-Return-to-Zero modulation format, CW laser, avalanche photodiode (APD) and PIN diode detectors and the type of network coding, Bit Error Rate Analyzer (BER) etc. The objective was achieved using optisystem 7 professional simulation software layout to design the power system budget and optical receiver circuit, the avalanche photodiode and PIN diode were used as the detector. Optisystem simulations were used to determine the optimum power and the receiver sensitivity for several values of attenuation. This research investigated and analyzed the performance of optical receiver at a wavelength of 1550nm. Simulations were made and the Bit Error Rate analyzer values for the various parameters taken. Several values of Q-Factor and Bit Error Rate were tabulated, and the corresponding graphs plotted. There was an improvement in the quality factor, the quality of signal with a low noise value and the extended transmission or propagation time was reduced.
