Assignment 3
TE-440 Optical Fiber Communication
Being a Telecommunication Engineer, you have asked to design a link between A ↔ B, where A
& B can be blocks of same building; buildings within a city; different cities; different countries.
You need to select as well as collect data required for A & B (such as distance between them).
When you closely observe the above design problem, you may come to the conclusion that
designing a link is actually the secondary problem. The main problem here is the transfer of data
(consider a huge data volume) between A ↔ B.
Besides, various options are available subject to the location of A & B and data volume to be
transferred (e.g., satellite, microwave point-to-point link, etc.). According to your expertise an
Optical Fiber should be the best possible solution; for the selected A & B and data volume;
explain why.
Perform the link power budget analysis or rise time budget analysis for the above scenario (type
of optical fiber, optical source, optical detector, or any other relevant instrument or measurement
may vary or selected as per your design approach).
