In a fiber system combined losses should be low
enough to ensure that adequate power reaches the
recieving end.
Adequate power implies power that produces specified
SNR.
Combined component must have sufficient bandwidth
to pass the highest modulation frequencies contained
in the optic signal.
We design a simple point to point video system.
Path length on the order of 10 Kilo meter.
The SNR at the reciever is 48dB
The signal cover the bandwidth of 4.5MHz.
The system is GRIN based fiber system.
Multimode fiber system using LED as light source in
the range 0.8 - 0.9 um.
Use of PIN diode having junction capacitance (5pF)
and responsivity (0.5A/W) at 0.85 um.
Assume 100% modulation so m=1.
Calculate load resistance (RL) from 4.5MHz cutoff
frequency and 5pF junction capacitance from the
relation
f3-dB=1/(2 pi RL Cd)
By computing above relation RL=7074Ω.
We must allow for some signal bandwidth degradation
due to source and fiber so we choose RL=7000 Ω for the
succeeding calculation.
The bandwidth of the reciever using the 7000Ω load
resistance is 4.54MHz.
This is the figure we use in following calculation.
Recieved power calculated from
SNR={0.5RL(ρP)²}/(4KTe Δf)
From the above relation recieved power(P) calculated.
So P=3цW
At this power average curent(I)
I=ρP=1.5цA
Dark current deing much less than the average current
can be disregarded.
EVALUATION OF
NOISE
THERMAL NOISE
COMPARISION
Comparision of both the noises shows that thermal
noise is approximately 10 times the shot noise.
So the system is thus regarded as thermal noise
limited system
The computed 1.5цA current should not drive the
detector in to non-linear operation.
Bias voltage=5V
Max current before saturation=5/7000
It is equal to 714цA .
Since this current >> average current(1.5цA) we are
safe in presumming operation in linear portion.
COMPONENT
SURVEY/AVAILABILITY
Surface emitting LED emitting with average power
(PDC) of 1mW at 0.85цm.
Rise time=12ns.
Spectral width=35nm
Emitting surface diameter=50цm
Axial numerical aperture(NA)=0.24.
Optic bandwidth x L=500MHz x km.
Loss=5dBm/km.
Core dia=50цm.
Reflection loss at entrence or exit of fiber end
each=0.2dB
Connector loss at transmitter and reciever each=1dB.
Source emit 1mW(0 dBm) and Rx require 3цW
(25.2dBm).Thus combined losses must not exceed 25.2
dB.
Coupling loss GRIN=(NA)²/2
So coupling loss=15.4dB
Connector loss at Tx &Rx = 1+1=2dB
Total GRIN fiber based system loss
15.4+0.4+2.0=17.8dB
Available GRIN based system power budget
25.2 - 17.8 = 7.4dB
Permisible communication range using GRIN fiber at
5dB/km =7.4/5 =1.48km =1480m
B/W BUDGET FOR COMM RANGE
Implies bandwidth limitation when integrating source, fiber
and detectors.
Rise time include rise time of the system(ts), light source(tLS),
fiber(tf) and photodetector(tPD) All are related by
ts² =tLS²+ tF ²+ tPD²
Bandwidth and rise time are related by:
f3-dB =0.35/ts
We know that f3-dB =4.5MHz so by computing above formula
we get ts =77.7ns
tPD = 2.19 RL CD =(2.19)*(7000)*(5n) = 76.6ns
tPD >> transit time of 1ns. So the detector is circuit limited.
We know that light source rise time is 12ns.
So from the previous relation we can easily compute tF =5.07ns.
Bandwidth length product:
0.71 * 500 = 355MHZ x km
Rise time:
tmod = 0.35/(355M)
tmod = 1ns/km
tDis=MΔλ = 90*35 =3150ps
tDis=3.2ns/km
Total fiber rise time
tF² = tmod² + tDis²
= 11.24
tF=3.3ns/km
GRIN fiber length = 5.07/3.3
=1.5km
Light signal over long distances become attenuated.
Regeneration of the light signal is necessary especially
over distances
Erbium-Doped Fiber Amplifier.
A device that boosts the signal in an optical fiber. The
EDFA was the first successful optical amplifier.
An EDFA amplifies all the channels in a WDM signal
simultaneously.
Functioning like a laser without mirrors, the EDFA
uses a semiconductor pump laser to introduce a
powerful beam at a shorter wavelength into a section
of erbium-doped fiber several meters long.
The pump light excites the erbium atoms to higher
orbits, and the input signal stimulates them to release
excess energy as photons in phase and at the same
wavelength.
Pump light is typically 1480 nm or 980 nm.
The system is power limited to 1480 meter OR 1.48 km
We can use optical amplifier (EDFA) to transmit the
video signal over 10 Km path.
