 Presently, a variety of optical communication simulation toolboxes are accessible. While the majority of these are proprietary software packages [@OptiSystem], [@vpi], [@optsim], a few are open-source but are designed to operate within proprietary software environments such as Matlab&reg;
 [@robochameleon], [@optilux]. In this scenario, OptiCommPy is intended to be an open-source alternative simulation tool for educational and research purposes.
 
+# OptiCommPy code structure
 The module structure of the OptiCommPy package is illustrated in Fig. 1. At the top level, the package is named `optic`, containing five sub-packages: `comm, models, dsp, utils`, and `plot`.
