The chromatic​​ (a)   is the phenomenon by which a ​ (b)   separates white light into various beams of monochromatic light.

Choose from the below words
dispersion
prism
attenuation
splitter
2.

The electromagnetic ​ (a)   is the arrangement of electromagnetic ​ (b)   according with their ​ (c)   or​ wavelength; where we can find invisible signals like x-rays, ​ (d)   or even visible light where we can find the​ (e)   such as red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue and purple.

Choose from the below words
spectrum
colors
waves
frequency
infrared light
3.

This acronym refers to the technology that is able to transmit multiple service signals with multiple wavelengths over one single optical fiber:

(a)  

4.

Match the following

a)

The dispersion generated by the different time delays from different signals with different frequencies (or wavelengths) during their transmission over the same optical fiber

1.

Chromatic Dispersion (CD)

b)

The time delay difference resulting from different propagation velocities of two optical signals with different cross polarization states

2.

Polarization Mode Dispersion (PMD)

c)

The time delay difference resulting from different modes (incident angles) that have different group velocities

3.

Intermodal Dispersion

5.

Match the following

a)

This fiber is the widely used single-mode fiber (SMF). It has around of 17 ps/nmkm at 1550nm. It is also called dispersion-unshifted fiber.

1.

G.652

b)

This fiber is called dispersion shifted fiber (DSF). It has zero-dispersion at 1550nm to match the minimum attenuation window of the fiber. But it has strong non-linear effects.

2.

G.653

c)

This fiber is also know as non-zero dispersion shift (NZDSF). Therefore, there is certain dispersion of around 4 ps/nmkm at 1550nm that is close to the one of G.653 but without the problem of strong non-linear effects.

3.

G.655

6.

Please order the following modulations from lower to higher capacity

a)

QPSK

b)

8QAM

c)

16QAM

d)

32QAM
