  2. Dispersion in Different Fiber Types The various losses in the cable are due to: - Absorption - Scattering - Dispersion - Bending

  3. What is Optical Fiber Dispersion? Dispersion is the spreading out of a light pulse in time as it propagates down the fiber.

  4. Dispersion in optical fiber Dispersion in optical fiber includes: - Model dispersion - Material dispersion - Waveguide dispersion

  5. Model Dispersion in Multimode Fibers Multimode fibers can guide many different light modes since they have much larger core size. Each mode enters the fiber at a different angle and thus travels at different paths in the fiber. Since each mode ray travels a different distance as it propagates, the ray arrive at different times at the fiber output. So the light pulse spreads out in time which can cause signal overlapping so seriously that you cannot distinguish them any more.. Model dispersion is not a problem in single mode fibers since there is only one mode that can travel in the fiber.

  6. Group work Material Dispersion Waveguide Dispersion

  7. Material Dispersion Also known as spectral dispersion or chromatic dispersion. Results because of variation due to Refractive Index of core as a function of wavelength, because of which pulse spreading occurs even when different wavelengths follow the same path.

  8. Waveguide Dispersion Waveguide Dispersion: Whenever any optical signal is passed through the optical fiber, practically 80% of optical power is confined to core & rest 20% optical power into cladding. Since fiber cladding has lower refractive index than fiber core, light ray that travels in the cladding travels faster than that in the core

  9. To measure the loss Ldb = 10log (pin / pout)

  10. Example: If a signal with a power of 10 W is inserted onto e transmission line and the measured power some distance away is 5 mW. Find the loss of the signal power:
