1Optical time-domain reflectometer — Fluke Networks OTDR in use Yokogawa s OTDR …
2Optical power meter — in use An optical power meter (OPM) is a device used to measure the power in an optical signal. The term usually refers to a device for testing average power in fiber optic systems. Other general purpose light power measuring devices are usually… …
3Optical heterodyne detection — is an important special case of heterodyne detection. In heterodyne detection, a signal of interest at some frequency is non linearly mixed with a reference local oscillator (LO) that is set at a close by frequency. The desired outcome is the… …
4Pulse-position modulation — is a form of signal modulation in which M message bits are encoded by transmitting asingle pulse in one of 2^M possible time shifts. This is repeated every T seconds, such thatthe transmitted bit rate is M/T bits per second. It is primarily… …
5Pulse generator — Pulse generators can either be internal circuits or pieces of electronic test equipment used to generate pulses. Features Simple pulse generators usually allow control of the pulse repetition rate (frequency), pulse width, delay with respect to… …
6Optical parametric amplifier — An optical parametric amplifier, abbreviated OPA, is a laser light source that emits light of variable wavelengths by an optical parametric amplification process. Contents 1 Optical parametric generation (OPG) 2 Optical parametric amplification… …
7Optical autocorrelation — Classification of the different kinds of optical autocorrelation. In optics, various autocorrelation functions can be experimentally realized. The field autocorrelation may be used to calculate the spectrum of a source of light, while the… …
8Pulse-code modulation — PCM redirects here. For other uses, see PCM (disambiguation). Pulse code modulation (PCM) is a method used to digitally represent sampled analog signals. It is the standard form for digital audio in computers and various Blu ray, Compact Disc and …
9Optical amplifier — An optical amplifier is a device that amplifies an optical signal directly, without the need to first convert it to an electrical signal. An optical amplifier may be thought of as a laser without an optical cavity, or one in which feedback from… …
10Optical communications repeater — An optical communications repeater is used in a fiber optic communications system to regenerate an optical signal by converting it to an electrical signal, processing that electrical signal and then retransmitting an optical signal. Such… …
