Dispersion affects optical fibers in the sense that dispersion causes a disruption in the frequency of lights waves and can focus the wavelength nature of light.

Explain the propagation of light through optical fiber and appilication of optical fiber as wave guide and sensor?

The concept of light propagation, the transmission of light along an optical fiber, can be described by two theories. According to the first theory, light is described as a simple ray. This theory is the ray theory, or geometrical optics, approach. The advantage of the ray approach is that you get a clearer picture of the propagation of light along a fiber. The ray theory is used to approximate the light acceptance and guiding properties of optical fibers. According to the second theory, light is described as an electromagnetic wave. This theory is the mode theory, or wave representation, approach. The mode theory describes the behavior of light within an optical fiber. The mode theory is useful in describing the optical fiber properties of absorption, attenuation, and dispersion


What is optical fiber communication?

Communication in which pulses light travels with its original speed i.e. 3*10^8 m/sec from one place to another with the help of optical fiber,and delay in speed occurs due to reflection,refraction,scattering ,dispersion,macrobending,macrobending and intermodal-dispersion.For any queries contact me: Mudassir Azammudassir.azam537@gmail.com

What are the negative things about fiber optic?

In the fiber optics there are different types of losses; these are the bending loss, absorption loss, dispersion loss, and scattering losses. Bending losses is the loss which exists when an optical fiber undergoes bending, this includes macroscopic and microscopic bending. Absorption loss is the absorption of light energy resulting in dimming of light at the end of the fiber, this includes intrinsic and extrinsic absorption. Dispersion loss is the distortion of the signal as it travels along the fiber optic cable, this includes intermodal and intramodal dispersion. Scattering losses occurs due to microscopic variations in the material density, compositional fluctuations, structural homogeneities and manufacturing defects, this includes linear and non-linear scattering.
