摘要:
A method for compensating for both material or chromatic dispersion and modal dispersion effects in a multimode fiber transmission system is provided. The method includes, but is not limited to measuring a fiber-coupled spatial spectral distribution of the multimode fiber laser transmitter connected with a reference multimode fiber optical cable and determining the amount of chromatic dispersion and modal dispersion present in the reference multimode fiber optic cable. The method also includes, but is not limited to, designing an improved multimode fiber optic cable which compensates for at least a portion of the chromatic dispersion and modal dispersion present in the reference multimode fiber optic cable resulting from the transmitter's fiber-coupled spatial spectral distribution.

摘要:
A method and apparatus for verifying the termination quality of an optical fiber interface in a fiber optic connector is provided. The test apparatus generally comprises a light source providing light to a test connector which contains an interface of a stub fiber of a fiber optic connector and a field fiber of a fiber optic cable. The portions of the test connector that are located between the optical fiber optic interface and the light detector are transmissive while other portions of the test connector located near the interface are highly reflective.

A method and apparatus for measuring the insertion loss of a fiber optic connection is provided. The invention generally comprises a light source providing light to a test connector which contains a juncture of two fiber optic cables. The test connector has one or more opaque portions surrounding the fiber optic juncture. A pyrometer or other heat detection means is then used to measure any temperature increase as a result of light scattered into the opaque portions of the test connector.
