**The team you’ll be part of**

Nokia Bell Labs is building the future of human experience and our interns will have the opportunity to learn from and work with industry leading experts, who solve the most formidable challenges confronting our world through disruptive innovation and research.

**What you will learn and contribute to**

Upcoming systems in the field of optical communications are expected to address different needs spreading over various market segments. Their development associated with a refined modeling of the networks requires a system design that draws on information and communication theory. For reliable and high-speed communications, an important and remarkable development has been the advent of channel coding techniques based on large-scale probabilistic models. Modern coding and signal processing permit to operate close to Shannon’s theoretical limits while keeping low computational complexity. This assumes that the overall system has been matched to a valid physical and technological model.

As an intern at Bell Labs “optics” you will get familiar with state-of-the-art research on coding theory and take part to the development of next-gen optical fiber coding systems. You will acquire an operational understanding of optical technologies and communication theory.
