Introduction to PC481Introduction to PC481Course Description:Types of optical fibers. Basic theory: characteristics, numerical aperture, losses, dispersion, modes. Passive fiber devices: couplers, connectors, splices. Light sources: LED, solid and semiconductor lasers. Modulators. Detectors. Systems design. The major emphasis is on fundamentals and on individual devices which make up the system rather than on detailed design of optical communication networks.
Contents:1. Overview of optical fiber communications (Chapter 1)2. Optical fibers: structures, waveguiding, fabrication and optical cable
(Chapter 2)3. Signal degradation in optical fibers (Chapter 3)4. Optical sourses: Laser diodes and LEDs (Chapter 4)5. Power launching and coupling (Chapter 5)6. Photodetectors (Chapter 6)7. Photonic transmission systems (Chapter 7) 8. Wavelength-division multiplexing (Chapter 8)

Early application of fiber optic communicationEarly application of fiber optic communicationDigital link consisting of time-division-multiplexing (TDM) of 64 kbps voice channels (early 1980).
The fundamental building block is a 1.544 Mb/s transmission rate known as a T1 rate. At any level, a signal at the designated input rate is multiplexed with other input signals at the same rate.

SONET & SDH StandardsSONET & SDH StandardsSONET (Synchronous Optical NETwork) is the network standard used in north America & SDH (Synchronous Digital Hierarchy) is used in other parts of the world. These define a synchronous frame structure for sending multiplexed digital traffic over fiber optic trunk lines.
The basic building block of SONET is called STS-1 (Synchronous Transport Signal) with 51.84 Mbps data rate. Higher-rate SONET signals are obtained by byte-interleaving N STS-1 frames, which are scramble & converted to an Optical Carrier Level N (OC-N) signal.
The basic building block of SDH is called STM-1 (Synchronous Transport Module) with 155.52 Mbps data rate. Higher-rate SDH signals are achieved by synchronously multiplexing N different STM-1 to form STM-N signal.
