    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention generally relate to the field of fiber optic communication, and more specifically, to optical time domain reflectometer apparatuses used for testing the integrity of a communication channel. Due to its high bandwidth, low dispersion, low attenuation, and immunity to electromagnetic interference among other advantages single-mode and multimode optical fibers are the standard transmission media used for intermediate and long reach high-speed communication applications in data centers, enterprise networks, metropolitan area networks (MANs), and long haul systems. Optical channels often contain other passive elements such as optical connectors, adapters, patch cords, splitters, combiners, and filters.

    Abstract: A patch cord for transmitting between a single mode fiber (SMF) and a multi-mode fiber (MMFs) has a MMF, SMF, and a photonic crystal fiber (PCF) with a hollow core placed between the SMF and MMF. A mode field diameter (MFD) of the PCF hollow core section is in the range of 16 to 19 microns, the length of the PCF is between 1 cm to 10 cm, the MMF has 50±2 microns core diameter, the SMF has a 6-9 microns core diameter, and the coupling between the PCF mode to the MMF fundamental mode is maximized.

    Abstract: The present invention relates in general to communication systems, and more specifically towards methods, systems, and devices that help improve transmission rates and spectral efficiency of intensity modulated (IM) or power modulated channels utilizing multi-level pulse amplitude modulation PAM-M. In an embodiment, the present invention used an iterative algorithm to open the eyes of an eye diagram in a relatively short number of steps. The algorithm, which may not require previous characterization of the channel, utilizes pseudo-random sequences, such as PSBS15 or PRQS10, and adaptive non-linear equalizers to optimize the pre-distortion taps.

    Abstract: Methods for estimating the Effective Modal Bandwidth (EMB) of laser optimized Multimode Fiber (MMF) at a specified wavelength, λS, based on the measured EMB at a first reference measurement wavelength, λM. In these methods the Differential Mode Delay (DMD) of a MMF is measured and the Effective Modal Bandwidth (EMB) is computed at a first measurement wavelength. By extracting signal features such as centroids, peak power, pulse widths, and skews, as described in this disclosure, the EMB can be estimated at a second specified wavelength with different degrees of accuracy. The first method estimates the EMB at the second specified wavelength based on measurements at the reference wavelength. The second method predicts if the EMB at the second specified wavelength is equal or greater than a specified bandwidth limit.

    Abstract: Examples disclosed herein illustrate systems and methods to determine and evaluate the quality of mechanical splices of optical fibers using insertion loss estimation. In at least some of the disclosed systems and methods, an optical fiber termination system (100) may include a reference fiber (301) coupling a light source (201) and a stub fiber (101) of a fiber optic connector (109), a digital camera sensor (205) and lens (204) to capture images of scattered light emanating from a portion of the fiber optic connector (109) and a portion of the reference fiber (301) both in a field of view (FOV) of the digital camera sensor (205), and a processor (206). The processor (206) may analyze digital images of scatter light emitted from at least a portion of the fiber optic connector (109) and the reference fiber (301) to estimate insertion loss at the fiber optic connector (109).
