Assignment Optical Communication

Q1. Describe the working & principle of pin photodiode. Q2. Write short note on RAPD photodetector. Q3. Explain the requirements of optical detector to be used for the purpose of optical communication. Q4. A 14400 nm single mode Digital fiber optical link needs to operate at 422 Mbps over 60km without amplifiers. A single mode in GaAs laser launches an average optical power of 13dBm into the fiber. The fiber has a loss of 0.25dB/km, Splices with a loss of 0.2dB every km, Coupling loss at the receiver is 0.3dB. The receiver used an InGaAs APD with a sensitivity of -29dBm.Excess noise penalties are expected to be 2.5dB. Setup an optical power budget for this link and find the system margin. What is the margin at 3.5Gbps with an APD sensitivity of -25dBm. Q5. Explain Quantum efficiency. Q6. Describe the power loss model for a point to point communication link. Q7. Write short notes on: WDM, FDM, TDM, Noise sources in OFC. Q8. Explain Optical Power Meter. Q9. Explain Optical Time Domain Reflectometer? Q10. Explain the working of trans impedance preamplifier and also write its advantages over high impedance FET amplifier.
