如何测量光纤损耗与距离（How to measure the loss and distance of optical fiber） Fiber optic cabling: how to measure fiber loss and distance Post, By:2010-4-14, 14:32:00 A: understand some terms 1. Starting power: the amplitude (energy) of light leaving the fiber transmitter, an energy level, usually measured in decibels relative to 1 MW (DBM). 2, receiver sensitivity: the minimum energy required by an optical fiber receiver to detect an incoming signal (measured in decibels relative to a milliwatts) 3, receiver saturation: used to define the maximum power input before the receiver is overdrive. Excessive excitation of the receiver can result in data errors, or it is impossible to detect any data (measured in the form of decibels relative to a milliwatts) 4 fiber budget: the result of subtracting the received sensitivity from the starting power. The power budget is not a measure of energy, which is measured in the form of decibels (DB). 5 attenuation: reduction in signal strength during transmission. Attenuation is the opposite of amplification, and it is normal that signals are transmitted from one point to another. If the signal is attenuated too much, it will become impossible to understand. This is why most networks require repeaters at regular intervals. Attenuation is measured in decibels. 6. modal dispersion (or compound mode dispersion) occurs in multimode fibers because the light is transmitted in multimode mode (reflecting path), and each path leads to a different transmission distance. Modal dispersion is one of the main distance dependent factors in multimode fibers. Two: Calculation of loss and distance 1, from here, all data transmitted over the optical fiber chain is considered in full duplex mode. It is impossible to place too much emphasis on timing concerns in half duplex environments, which limit the distance of the fiber links, which can occur regardless of the type of fiber used, single-mode or multi-mode. 2, note that the measurement of decibels is carried o
