1. You have 25 km of optical cable with an attenuation coefficient of 0.27 dB/km. What is the total attenuation due to the cable? 3. Considering further question 1. If the power transmitted is 1 mW and the receiver sensitivity is -30 dBm what is the maximum distance of optical fiber that can be used before amplification is needed? You can assume only cable losses.

Please answer in detail the discussions questions below. 1. Why do optical fibers have a minimum bend radius? What might happen if this minimum bend radius is exceeded? 2. Find or create your own application for the color dependence of the index of refraction. Your example need not be fully developed, but it should (1) address some task, and (2) be clear about the application of the color dependence to the task.

In your own words and not copied from the web please. Optical fibers are made from glass or plastic and generally have an index of refraction of about 1.45. They are commonly used in telecommunications and computer networks. Identify and describe a specific application for fiber optics? What kind of information can they transmit? What advantages do they have over other materials or technologies? Explain how optical fibers work and the role of total internal reflection of light within.

Total internal reflection is behind the ability of optical fibers to send signals over great distances. The are typically formed by a core material of higher index than the "cladding" material that surrounds the core. For an optical fiber with a core index of 1.58 and a cladding index of 1.53. For a ray travelling along the core, what is the minimum angle (in degrees) of incidence against the cladding needed to keep the light in the fiber? 75.55 As...
