About this document
Introduction to Fiber Optic Communication by Erart Karkini is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document provides an introduction to fiber optic communication. It discusses the history of increasing communication frequencies from audio to microwave to explore wider bandwidths. The need for higher bandwidths drove exploration of the optical window, where frequencies are orders of magnitude greater than microwave. This allows bandwidths 1000-10000 times larger than microwave, motivating the development of optical communication technologies starting in the 1960s to utilize the high bandwidth of the
