Sensitivity in Fiber Optic Communication
Optical receiver sensitivity is a key parameter that determines the performance and reliability of fiber optic networks. Fibre-optic sensing based on transmission offer an alternative to scattering-based distributed acoustic sensing (DAS). The ability to interrogate fibres that are thousands of kilometres long opens opportunities for studies of remote regions, including ocean basins. Different modulation formats and bit rates have different effects on the receiver.
