Objective type question on optical fiber?
An objective type of question on optical fiber is on that focuses on the integral part of fiber optic. A good question would be, " Why are optical fibers immune to EMI? "
Can an optical fiber transmit microwaves?
To be perfectly technical, the answer to this question would have to be 'yes', but only because light and radio are the same physical phenomenon. The optical fiber only conducts the electromagnetic waves that we usually describe as "light". The waves that we normally describe as "radio" cannot pass through optical fiber.
What is different between optical fiber signal and electrical signal?
A fiber optical signal is based on the transfer of photons, while an electrical signal is based on the transfer of electrons.
What is meant by attenuation in Optical Fiber Communication?
When an optical signal of a given wavelength travels in the fiber it looses power. The amount of loss of power per Km length of fiber is called its attenuation. A=10*LOG10(POUT/PIN) dB/Km Where POuT is optical power after 1 Km PIN is th epower launched in the Fiber.
Application of optical fiber communication in railways?
To contact with the remote persons
Optical communication- may2008 question paper?

Where can one purchase a plastic optical fiber?
There are different online websites available the sell plastic optical fibers. Some of these websites include molex, Anchor Optics, Fiber Optics, and Fiber Optic Products.
When was the optical telescope invented?
Fiber optics was invented for the same reason that human optics were invented, the fiber was having trouble seeing clearly.
What is the difference between fiber optics and optical fiber?
Fiber and fibre mean the same thing. The only difference is that fiber is derived from American English, and fibre is derived from European English.

What is fiber optic sensor?
An optical fiber is a glass or plastic fiber that carries light along its length. Fiber optics is the overlap of applied science and engineering concerned with the design and application of optical fibers.

Is fiber optics and Fiber optic sensors are same?
No, A fiber optic sensor is a sensor that uses optical fiber either as the sensing element ("intrinsic sensors"), or as a means of relaying signals from a remote sensor to the electronics that process the signals ("extrinsic sensors").
