Abstract
OptiSystem software is a versatile software that can be used for designing, simulating, and optimizing photonic components, optical links, systems, and networks. The software tool can be used for teaching students at graduate or undergraduate levels. However, a free version of OptiSystem called OptiPerformer enables teaching optical communication, and other Photonics courses to students at the undergraduate level. Optiwave created sets of lab experiments to mimic lab environment teaching. The experiments have a description, tasks, questions, and a solution manual. Consequently, students can learn remotely under any sever condition such as COVID pandemic or weather-related situations. Additionally, universities would allow students to practice in a semi-realistic environment whenever there are no available experimental photonics labs.
