The Nyquist theorem is a property of mathematics and has nothing to do with technology. It says that if you have a function whose Fourier spectrum does not contain any sines or cosines above f, then by sampling the function at a frequency of 2fyou capture all the information there is. Thus, the Nyquist theorem is true for all media.

Is Nyquist theorem true for optical fiber?

I cannot see where the Nyquist theorem relates to cables, fiber or not.The theorem I know, the Nyquist-Shannon sampling theorem, talks about the limitations in sampling a continuous (analog) signal at discrete intervals to turn it into digital form.An optical fiber or other cable merely transport bits, there is no analog/digital conversion and no sampling taking place.


Is Nyquist theorem true for optical fiber or only for copper wire?

Nyquist theorem, also known as the Nyquist-Shannon sampling theorem, is a fundamental concept in signal processing that applies to all types of communication channels, including optical fiber and copper wire. It states that in order to accurately reconstruct a signal, the sampling rate must be at least twice the highest frequency component of the signal. This principle is essential for digital communication systems to avoid aliasing and ensure reliable data transmission in both optical fiber and copper wire environments.


Is the Nyquist theorem true for high-quality single-mode optical fiber or only for copper wire?

The Nyquist theorem is a property of mathematics and has nothing to do with technology. It says that if you have a function whose Fourier spectrum does not contain any sines or cosines above f, then by sampling the function at a frequency of 2f you capture all the information there is. Thus, the Nyquist theorem is true for all media.


Which can transmit faster optical fiber or copper wire I read in an article that copper wire is faster than optical fiber?

Optical Fiber1. Photon has no mass, and it can travel faster than electron2. In multi-mode fiber, several channels of data can be transmitted at the same time


Why copper cables are transformed into optical fiber?

fibre has higher data capacity, takes less space, is cheaper, etc. than copper.


What are the disadvantages of using optical fiber instead of copper wire for communications?

Optical fiber carries signals through light, and therefore at light speed, the fastest possible, and gets less hot. Copper wire transmits information using electricity, which although fast, is not nearly as fast as light. Fiber optics allows faster transmission of data.


Can optic ADSL function with optical fiber?

Optic ADSL, or Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line, typically does not function with optical fiber as it is designed to work over traditional copper telephone lines. ADSL uses electrical signals transmitted over these copper lines to provide internet access. In contrast, fiber optic technology uses light signals transmitted through optical fibers, offering faster speeds and higher bandwidth. For fiber optic connections, technologies like FTTH (Fiber to the Home) or FTTC (Fiber to the Cabinet) are used instead of ADSL.


Different between fiber optical cable and copper cable?

Fiber optic cable is constructed out of glass or plastic, and uses light pulses to transmit data. Copper cable is made out of copper material (not glass or plastic) and uses electrical voltages to transmit signals.


What is the optical range of optical fiber?

40 GHz


How does an optical transmitter sends signals to the optical fiber?

Usually, there is a laser diode that is optically coupled to the fiber.


Is cross talk is possible in optical fiber?

One of the advantages of optical fiber is that it is NOT susceptible to cross-talk.


Objective type question on optical fiber?

An objective type of question on optical fiber is on that focuses on the integral part of fiber optic. A good question would be, " Why are optical fibers immune to EMI? "
