This book was released on 2019-02-04 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book demonstrates the implementation of an automated measuring system for very efficient measurement of chromatic dispersion, which uses a modulation phase shift method over long haul of optical single mode fiber. The authors show how a new scheme for measuring chromatic dispersion is adopted in conjunction with a tunable laser (TLS), providing the optical power at required wavelength and digital oscilloscope (DOSC) for measuring the phase difference between microwave signals from transmitter and microwave signals at the receiver. This is a novel approach for real-time chromatic dispersion in optical systems such as optical fibers. The setup used is very simple, accurate and cost effective, compared to other methods such as direct measurement, differential mode delay, polarization mode dispersion measurement and phase delay method.

This book was released on 1977 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dispersion is one of the most important properties of optical fibers, since it determines their information carrying capacity. In the past, estimates of fiber dispersion have been based on a highly approximate modal analysis. A new method based on accurate numerical solutions of Maxwell's wave equation for calculating pulse dispersion in graded index fibers is described. The methods discussed should also be useful for studying many properties of fiber optic transmission. 6 figures.

Download or read book Modeling and Compensation of Modal Dispersion in Graded index Multimode Fiber written by Mahdieh Bagher Shemirani and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Multimode fiber (MMF) has been used traditionally in local-area and campus-area networks. The large core size facilitates laser-to-fiber and fiber-to-fiber coupling, reducing component costs and the cost of setting up and maintaining a network. The propagation of multiple modes leads to modal dispersion, which traditionally has limited the bit rate-distance product to less than about 2 Gbit/s-km. Models for modal dispersion must take account of mode coupling by fiber imperfections and bents. Traditionally, mode coupling has been studied using a power-coupling model, which can accurately predict the population in different modes when using incoherent sources, such as light-emitting diodes. But the power coupling model is inherently unable to describe some effects in high-speed links using coherent laser sources, such as polarization dependence of impulse response. In the first part of this dissertation, we describe a field-coupling model for propagation in MMF, which is analogous to the model used to study polarizationmode dispersion in single-mode fiber. Our model allows computation of the fiber impulse response, given a launched electric-field profile and polarization. In order to model both spatial- and polarization-mode coupling, we divide the fiber into numerous short sections, each having random curvature and random angular orientation. This model can be described using only a few parameters. With the help of this model we investigate first-order and higher-order modal dispersion effects. We describe principal modes (PMs), which are free of modal dispersion. We describe how the PM group delays depend on the strength of mode coupling in the low-coupling regime (e.g., glass fibers) and the high-coupling regime (e.g., plastic fibers). We also explain the observed polarization dependence of the impulse response. Considering terms of higher order (in frequency), our model accounts for an observed filling-in between peaks in the impulse response and predicts a nonlinear relationship between input and output intensity waveforms. In the second part of this dissertation, we describe the use of an adaptive spatial light modulator (SLM) to launch light into PMs, preventing modal dispersion. Previously this technique has enabled transmission at bit rate-distance products over 200 Gbit/skm. We have extended the adaptive optics technique to include control of signal polarization. We have studied several alternative adaptive optical systems and have derived the optimal solution for each system. We show that the best performance is obtained by controlling each polarization independently using two SLMs.

Optoelectronics for Data Communication is an excellent reference for both researchers and engineers because it emphasizes fundamentals rather than more easily dated topics. The book focuses particular attention on practical engineering issues, making it invaluable to those who have worked or studied in the field of optoelectronics for telecommunication and are now moving to optoelectronics for data communication. - Focuses on fundamentals of the field - Reviews critical technologies and applications - Explains important technology compatibility issues - Includes chapters written by specialists in each area with emphasis on engineering issues and practical aspects - Presents coverage of topics that are unique to optical data communications
Download or read book Optical Waveguide Theory written by A.W. Snyder and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 742 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text is intended to provide an in-depth, self-contained, treatment of optical waveguide theory. We have attempted to emphasize the underlying physical processes, stressing conceptual aspects, and have developed the mathematical analysis to parallel the physical intuition. We also provide comprehensive supplementary sections both to augment any deficiencies in mathematical background and to provide a self-consistent and rigorous mathematical approach. To assist in. understanding, each chapter con centrates principally on a single idea and is therefore comparatively short. Furthermore, over 150 problems with complete solutions are given to demonstrate applications of the theory. Accordingly, through simplicity of approach and numerous examples, this book is accessible to undergraduates. Many fundamental topics are presented here for the first time, but, more importantly, the material is brought together to give a unified treatment of basic ideas using the simplest approach possible. To achieve such a goal required a maturation of the subject, and thus the text was intentionally developed over a protracted period of the last 10 years.
