There are three main types of optical fibers classified based on their material, number of modes, and refractive index profile. Glass fibers use silica and have good stability while plastic fibers are low-cost but higher attenuation. Based on modes, single-mode fibers only support one mode and are used for long distances, while multi-mode fibers support multiple modes and are used for shorter distances. The refractive index profile further divides fibers into step-index, where the refractive index changes abruptly, and graded-index, where it changes gradually in a parabolic fashion. Each type has different characteristics that determine their applications in optical communication systems.

What are Optical Fibers ?
Structure of optical fiber
Working principle of optical fiber
Optical fiber communicationsystem
Advantage /Disadvantage of opticalfiber
Application of optical fiber
Conclusion
3. What is Optical Fiber?
An optical fiber is a hair thin cylindrical fiber of glass or
any transparent dielectric medium.
The fiber which are used foroptical
communication are wave guides
made of transparent dielectrics.
Its function is to guide visible and
infrared light over long distance.
5. Conti…
Core- central tube of very thin size made up of
optically transparent dielectric medium andcarries
the light form transmitter to receiver. The core
diameter can vary from about 5um-100um.
Cladding- outer optical material surrounding the core
having reflecting index lower than core. It helps to
keep the light within the core throughout the
phenomena of total internal reflection.
Buffer Coating- plastic coating that protects thefiber
made of silicon rubber. The typical diameter of fiber
after coating is 250-300um.
6. Classification of opticalfiber
Optical fiber is classified into two categories based
on:-
1)The number of modes-
Single mode fiber(SMF) and
Multi-mode fiber(MMF)
2) The reflective index-
Step index optical fiber
Graded- index optical fiber
7. Onbasisof number of modes:-
Single mode fiber-
In single mode fiber only one mode can propagate through the
fiber.
It has small core diameter (5um) and high cladding diameter
(70um).
Difference between the refractive index of core and cladding is
very small.
There is neither dispersion nor degradation therefore it issuitable
for long distancecommunication.
The light is passed through the single mode fiber throughlaser
diode.
8. Multi- modefiber
It allows a large number of modes for
light ray travelling through it.
The core diameter is 40um and that
of cladding is 70um.
The relative refractive index
difference is also large than single
mode fiber.
There is signal degradation due to
multimode dispersion.
It is not suitable for long distance
communication due to large
dispersion and attenuation of signal.
10. Single Index fiber:-
Step-index optical fiber-the refractive index of coreand
cladding are constant.
The light ray propagate through it in the form of
meridiognal rays which cross the fiber axis duringevery
reflection at the core claddingboundary.
Graded Index Fiber:-
In this type of fiber core has a non uniform refractive index
that gradually decrease from the center towards the core
cladding interface.
The cladding has a uniform refractive index.
The light rays propagate through it in the form of helical
rays. They never cross the fiberaxis.
11. Optical Fiber Communication
System
Information source- it provide an electrical signal to a
transmitter comprising an electricalstage.
Electrical transmitter- It drives an optical source to givean
modulation of the light wavecarrier.
Optical source- It provides the electrical-optical
conversion. It may be a semiconductor laser or an LED.
12. Continue..
Optical cable- It serve as transmission medium.
Optical detector- It is responsible for optical to electrical
conversion of data. It may be a photodiodes, phototransistors or
photoconductors.
Electrical receiver: It is used for electrical interfacing at the
receiver end of the optical link and to perform the signal
processing electrically.
Destination: It is the final point at which we receivethe
information in the form of electrical signal.
13. Advantage of OpticalFiber
Immense bandwidth to utilize
Total electrical isolation in the transmission medium
Very low transmission loss
Small size and light weight
High signal security
Very low power consumption and wide scopeof
system expansion etc.
14. Conclusion
At the last, there are some negatives of using
optical fiber communication system in terms of
splicing, coupling, set up expenses etc. but it is an un
avoidable fact that optical fiber has revolutionized the
field of communication. As soon as computers will be
capable of processing optical signals, the total arena of
communication will be opticalized immediately.
