Development and Future of Optical Fiber Related Technologies

Theoretical study of the dispersion effects occurring at optical fiber connections

“…At the same time, published sources [5][6][7][8][9][10] do not provide information on the effect of the investigated power redistribution processes on form, and, consequently, duration of the optical signal.…”

“…A considerable number of scientific studies are devoted to studies in the field of signal attenuation at OF connection points. Specifically, models of signal energy distribution in detachable [5] and permanent OF connections were synthesized [6,7]. However, no consideration of the effect of signal form change in the points of fiber connection was provided in these studies.…”

“…These studies also do not take into consideration a phenomenon of signal form distortion caused by redistribution of signal power in an OF connection point. An extensive list of references devoted to the mentioned issues is given in [5][6][7][8][9][10]. However, these studies do not consider the effect of fiber connection points on the optical signal length and magnitude of introduced dispersion.…”
