Influences of Fiber Optics Introduction: People have been trying to improve communications over the centuries. Communication plays a very important role in everyday life. The advancement of the world mostly depends on how we share the information with the rest of the world. Fiber optics is making this task easier and quicker. It is currently the fastest internet technology. Fiber optic is a technology of transmitting light through very thin flexible glass or plastic fibers. It is one of the fastest

HISTORY OF FIBER OPTICS * In 1840‚ Daniel Colladon and Jacques Babinet demonstrated the principle of guiding light by refraction. * It was followed by a public demonstration by John Tyndal in 1852. In 1870‚ Tyndal wrote about the property of total internal reflection in his book about the nature of light. * In 1880‚ Alexander Graham Bell and Sumner Tainter invented the Photophone‚ a device capable of transmitting sound waves over beam of light. This is considered as mankind’s first attempt

Fiber optic communication ABSTRACT FIBRE-OPTICS COMMUNICATION Most reference materials that discuss the historical perspective mention about Indian smoke signals. None of these primitive systems was secure due to the spreading of the unguided light. Ideally‚ a communication system should be secure and should not require installation of a cumbersome physical media. Fiber optics satisfied these desires‚ and as early as 1958‚ fiber-optic equipment was being focused for use in the factory. The fiber-optic

FIBER TO THE HOME: THE NEW EMPOWERMENT abstract: In order to offer future higher bandwidth applications‚ the choice for a fiber to the home (FTTH) network seems to be the best candidate. Still‚ as the full deployment of a new FTTH network involves tremendous civil works and costs‚ only the highly profitable areas‚ e.g. city centers‚ are currently being installed. With the installation of such FTTH networks‚ all involved parties stay with many questions. What will the future bring on demands from

The adaptation of natural fiber composites in the consumer industry has not had the same explosive growth as with the transportation or even the construction industry. The benefits of cost savings and weight reduction that can be obtained with natural fiber composites played a significant role for the proliferation into those respective industries. But in the consumer market‚ stemming from the rise of synthetic fibers starting in the 1940’s‚ glass fiber and carbon fibers have dominated the market

Particularly‚ optical fiber communication plays a vital role in the development of high quality and high-speed telecommunication systems. Today‚ optical fibers are not only used in telecommunication links but also used in the Internet and Local area networks (LAN) to achieve high signaling rates. What is fiber optic communication? Fiber-optic communication is a method of transmitting information from one place to another by sending pulses of light through an optical fiber. The light forms an electromagnetic

spreading of a light pulse as it travels down a fiber when light pulses launched close together(high data rates) spread too much and result in errors and a loss of information. The spectral width determines the number of different wavelengths that are emitted from LED or laser. One way to reduce chromatic dispersion is to narrow the spectral width of the transmitter. Chromatic dispersion can be compensated for with the use of dispersion-shifted fiber (DSF). Laser has a more narrow spectral width

What is the difference between Serial transmission and parallel transmission? Answer: Digital data transmission can occur in two basic modes: serial or parallel. Data within a computer system is transmitted via parallel mode on buses with the width of the parallel bus matched to the word size of the computer system. Data between computer systems is usually transmitted in bit serial mode . Consequently‚ it is necessary to make a parallel-to-serial conversion at a computer interface when sending
