We present high-resolution optical time domain reflectometer (OTDR) integration into fiber optic transceivers. Transceivers with built-in-test (BIT) OTDR can characterize the fiber plant and isolate faults to reduce network installation and maintenance costs.
Fiber optic avionic networks are increasing in prevalence for high speed communication and sensor networks in aircrafts. The operational challenge is the maintenance of these networks and improving total cost of ownership of the fiber networks over the life cycle of the asset. Since 2002 significant improvements in avionic fiber optic network reliability have been achieved and have resulted in innovations...
In summary, VCSEL-based transceivers can be fabricated as compact embeddable components. VCSELs are available with 25 Gbps data rates per channel and are the lowest power optical components available (due to low lasing thresholds and uncooled operation).
In recent years, the aerospace industry has made great strides in deploying fiber optic systems in every imaginable platform. A common complaint still remains - where is the standardized test and qualification standards for fiber optic components that capture the unique test requirements for ruggedized environments? This paper will outline worldwide efforts underway to standardize the testing and...
