Fiber Dispersion Measurements Quiz

What is fiber dispersion?

• Spreading of light pulses

• Compression of light pulses

• Absorption of light pulses

• Reflection of light pulses

Why is it important to measure fiber dispersion?

• To ensure the quality of signal transmission in optical communication systems.

• To measure the distance between fibers

• To improve the taste of food

• To determine the color of the fiber

Name one method used to measure fiber dispersion.

• Pressure sensing method

• Frequency-domain method

• Time-domain method

• Temperature measurement method

What are the units of measurement for fiber dispersion?

• dB/Hz/km

• ps/km/nm

• m/s/km

• Hz/m/μm

How does fiber dispersion affect the transmission of signals through optical fibers?

• It causes the spreading of optical signals, leading to distortion and loss of signal quality.

• It enhances the transmission of signals through optical fibers

• It reduces the cost of signal transmission through optical fibers

• It has no effect on the transmission of signals through optical fibers
