1. An optical power of 150μW is launched in an optical fiber. The optical fiber has an attenuation of 0.52dB/km. Determine the maximum possible length of the optical link without having the signal amplified. The minimum optical power which can be detected by an optical detector on the receiver side is 2μW. Every 10kms an optical fiber joint (optical fibers interconnect) is required with an attenuation of 1.5dB. 2. Compare a step-index and a graded-index fiber in terms of modal dispersion (pulse broadening). Assume that the fiber is 100km long and the refractive index difference between the cladding and the core is 0.01. 3. a) Calculate the pulse spreading if the light of a GaAs LED with a spectral width of 30nm is coupled in the fiber. The emitted wavelength is 860nm. b) The GaAs LED is replaced by a GaAs laser diode. The emitted wavelength is again 860nm. Make an estimate by how much the pulse spreading can be reduced. 4. a) Derive the expression for material and waveguide dispersion. b) Design a link of length 80 km with a transmitter, fiber and receiver (no amplifier) for lowest attenuation and dispersion. Specify, explain and/or derive (if derivation of any parameter applies to your design) all the parameters used in your design. 5. Write a code in MATLAB to plot the dispersion (waveguide and material). Also simulate group velocity dispersion and PMD in fibers for a series of wavelengths. (OPTIONAL) INSTRUCTIONS 1. Students are expected to solve the assignment individually. Assignments are expected to be written or printed (if typed) on A4 size sheets. If you opt to type the assignment, submit the printed version of your assignment. Do not e-mail the assignment if you opt to type it. 2. Every assignment will be scanned through an anti plagiarism software to check for the possibility of cheating. 3. Students engaging in cheating, plagiarism and/or the submission for credit of any work or materials that are attributable in whole or in part to another person or website face the possibility of failure in the course and /or deducted marks in the examination. 4. Question 5 is a software (MATLAB) task designed for the students to gain an in depth knowledge on dispersion. The question is optional and hence students may opt to not attempt it. No credits will be deducted if you do not attempt question 5. However, an extra credit will be given to the students who attempt it. 5. If you opt to attempt question 5, attach the MATLAB code and the results in graphical format with your assignment. 6. Submission date for the assignment is on 19/10/2010 at room 14, block 4, Division of ECE at 11:30 a.m. Assignments will not be accepted at any other day and time. 7.
