2-1.
E = 100cos 2π108 t + 30°( ) ex + 20 cos 2π108t − 50°( ) ey
+ 40cos 2π108 t + 210°( ) ez
2-2. The general form is:
y = (amplitude) cos(ωt - kz) = A cos [2π(νt - z/λ)]. Therefore
(a) amplitude = 8 µm
(b) wavelength: 1/λ = 0.8 µm-1 so that λ = 1.25 µm
(c) ω = 2πν = 2π(2) = 4π
(d) At t = 0 and z = 4 µm we have
y = 8 cos [2π(-0.8 µm-1)(4 µm)]
= 8 cos [2π(-3.2)] = 2.472
2-3. For E in electron volts and λ in µm we have E = 1.240
λ
(a) At 0.82 µm, E = 1.240/0.82 = 1.512 eV
At 1.32 µm, E = 1.240/1.32 = 0.939 eV
At 1.55 µm, E = 1.240/1.55 = 0.800 eV
(b) At 0.82 µm, k = 2π/λ = 7.662 µm-1
At 1.32 µm, k = 2π/λ = 4.760 µm-1
At 1.55 µm, k = 2π/λ = 4.054 µm-1
2-4. x1 = a1 cos (ωt - δ1) and x2 = a2 cos (ωt - δ2)
Adding x1 and x2 yields
x1 + x2 = a1 [cos ωt cos δ1 + sin ωt sin δ1]
+ a2 [cos ωt cos δ2 + sin ωt sin δ2]
= [a1 cos δ1 + a2 cos δ2] cos ωt + [a1 sin δ1 + a2 sin δ2] sin ωt
Since the a's and the δ's are constants, we can set
a1 cos δ1 + a2 cos δ2 = A cos φ (1)
2
a1 sin δ1 + a2 sin δ2 = A sin φ (2)
provided that constant values of A and φ exist which satisfy these equations. To
verify this, first square both sides and add:
A2 (sin2 φ + cos2 φ) = a12 sin2 δ1 + cos2 δ1( )
+ a22 sin2 δ2 + cos2 δ2( ) + 2a1a2 (sin δ1 sin δ2 + cos δ1 cos δ2)
or
A2 = a12 + a2
2 + 2a1a2 cos (δ1 - δ2)
Dividing (2) by (1) gives
tan φ = a1 sinδ1 + a2 sinδ2
a1 cosδ1 + a2 cosδ2
Thus we can write
x = x1 + x2 = A cos φ cos ωt + A sin φ sin ωt = A cos(ωt - φ)
2-5. First expand Eq. (2-3) as

cos δ = - sin (ωt - kz) sin δ (2.5-2)

(a) Apply Snell's law
n1 cos θ1 = n2 cos θ2
where n1 = 1, θ1 = 33°, and θ2 = 90° - 33° = 57°
∴ n2 =

Since ∆ << 1, ∆2 << ∆; ∴ NA ≈ n1 2∆

2-15. For ν = 0, from Eqs. (2-42) and (2-43) we have
7
Ez = AJ0(ur) e j(ωt − βz) and Hz = BJ0(ur) e j(ωt − βz)
We want to find the coefficients A and B. From Eqs. (2-47) and (2-51),
respectively, we have
C = Jν (ua)
K ν (wa) A and D =
Jν (ua)K ν (wa)
B
Substitute these into Eq. (2-50) to find B in terms of A:
A jβνa
1u2 +
1w2
= Bωµ
J' ν (ua)uJ ν (ua)
+K' ν (wa)wKν(wa)
For ν = 0, the right-hand side must be zero. Also for ν = 0, either Eq. (2-55a) or (2-56a)
holds. Suppose Eq. (2-56a) holds, so that the term in square brackets on the right-hand
side in the above equation is not zero. Then we must have that B = 0, which from Eq. (2-
43) means that Hz = 0. Thus Eq. (2-56) corresponds to TM0m modes.
For the other case, substitute Eqs. (2-47) and (2-51) into Eq. (2-52):
0 = 1

where Jν and Kν are defined in Eq. (2-54). If for ν = 0 the term in square brackets on the
right-hand side is non-zero, that is, if Eq. (2-56a) does not hold, then we must have that A
= 0, which from Eq. (2-42) means that Ez = 0. Thus Eq. (2-55) corresponds to TE0m
modes.
2-16. From Eq. (2-23) we have
∆ = n 1

∆ << 1 implies n1 ≈ n2
Thus using Eq. (2-46), which states that n2k = k2 ≤ β ≤ k1 = n1k, we have

2k2= k1

(1.48)2 − (1.46)2[ ]1/ 2= 46.5
Using Eq. (2-61) M ≈ V2/2 =1081 at 820 nm.
Similarly, M = 417 at 1320 nm and M = 303 at 1550 nm. From Eq. (2-72)

2-20 (a) At 1320 nm we have from Eqs. (2-23) and (2-57) that V = 25 and M = 312.
(b) From Eq. (2-72) the power flow in the cladding is 7.5%.

2-23. For small values of ∆ we can write V ≈ 2πa

For a = 5 µm we have ∆ ≈ 0.002, so that at 0.82 µm
V ≈
2π (5 µm)0.82 µm
1.45 2(0.002) = 3.514
Thus the fiber is no longer single-mode. From Figs. 2-18 and 2-19 we see that the LP01
and the LP11 modes exist in the fiber at 0.82 µm.

For Lp = 10 cm ny - nx =

10−1 m
= 1.3×10-5
For Lp = 2 m ny - nx =
1.3 ×10−6 m
2 m= 6.5×10-7
Thus
6.5×10-7 ≤ ny - nx ≤ 1.3×10-5
2-26. We want to plot n(r) from n2 to n1. From Eq. (2-78)
n(r) = n1 1− 2∆(r / a)α[ ]1 / 2= 1.48 1− 0.02(r / 25)α[ ]1 / 2
n2 is found from Eq. (2-79): n2 = n1(1 - ∆) = 1.465

∆ =

2-28. Using Eq. (2-23) we have
(a) NA = n12 − n2
2( )1/ 2= (1.60)2 − (1.49)2[ ]1/ 2

(b) NA = (1.458)2 − (1.405)2[ ]1/ 2= 0.39
2-29. (a) From the Principle of the Conservation of Mass, the volume of a preform rod
section of length Lpreform and cross-sectional area A must equal the volume of the fiber
drawn from this section. The preform section of length Lpreform is drawn into a fiber of
length Lfiber in a time t. If S is the preform feed speed, then Lpreform = St. Similarly, if s is the
fiber drawing speed, then Lfiber = st. Thus, if D and d are the preform and fiber diameters,
respectively, then
Preform volume = Lpreform(D/2)2 = St (D/2)2
and Fiber volume = Lfiber (d/2)2 = st (d/2)2
Equating these yields
St D2

We want to find the thickness of the deposited layer (3 mm - R). This can be done by
comparing the ratios of the preform core-to-cladding cross-sectional areas and the fiber
core-to-cladding cross-sectional areas:

Thus, thickness = 3 mm - 2.77 mm = 0.23 mm.
2-31. (a) The volume of a 1-km-long 50-µm diameter fiber core is
V = πr2L = π (2.5×10-3 cm)2 (105 cm) = 1.96 cm3
The mass M equals the density ρ times the volume V:
M = ρV = (2.6 gm/cm3)(1.96 cm3) = 5.1 gm
13
(b) If R is the deposition rate, then the deposition time t is

2-32. Solving Eq. (2-82) for χ yields

where Y = π for surface flaws.
Thus

(70 MN / m2 )2 π= 2.60×10-4 mm = 0.26 µm
2-33. (a) To find the time to failure, we substitute Eq. (2-82) into Eq. (2-86) and
integrate (assuming that σ is independent of time):

3-2. Since the attenuations are given in dB/km, first find the power levels in dBm for
100 µW and 150 µW. These are, respectively,
P(100 µW) = 10 log (100 µW/1.0 mW) = 10 log (0.10) = - 10.0 dBm
P(150 µW) = 10 log (150 µW/1.0 mW) = 10 log (0.15) = - 8.24 dBm
(a) At 8 km we have the following power levels:
P1300(8 km) = - 8.2 dBm – (0.6 dB/km)(8 km) = - 13.0 dBm = 50 µW
P1550(8 km) = - 10.0 dBm – (0.3 dB/km)(8 km) = - 12.4 dBm = 57.5 µW
(b) At 20 km we have the following power levels:
P1300(20 km) = - 8.2 dBm – (0.6 dB/km)(20 km) = - 20.2 dBm = 9.55 µW
P1550(20 km) = - 10.0 dBm – (0.3 dB/km)(20 km) = - 16.0 dBm = 25.1 µW

3-11. (a) We want to solve Eq. (3-12) for αgi. With α = 2 in Eq. (2-78) and letting
∆ = n 2 (0) − n2
2
2n2 (0)
we have
α(r) = α1 + (α2 - α1) n2 (0) − n2(r)
n 2(0) − n22 = α1 + (α2 - α1)

Thus

Thus αgi = α1 + (α2 − α1)

yields eKa 2

From this we have Ka2 = ln 10 = 2.3. Thus
αgi = α1 + (α2 − α1)
2.3= 0.57α1 + 0.43α2

To compare this with Fig. 3-12, calculate three representative points, for example,λ = 0.2, 0.6, and 1.0 µm. Thus we have the following:

3-13. (a) From Fig. 3-13, dτdλ
≈ 80 ps/(nm-km) at 850 nm. Therefore, for the LED we
have from Eq. (3-20)
σmat

dτdλ
σλ = [80 ps/(nm-km)](45 nm) = 3.6 ns/km
For a laser diode,
σmat
L = [80 ps/(nm-km)](2 nm) = 0.16 ns/km
(b) From Fig. 3-13, dτmat
dλ= 22 ps/(nm-km)
Therefore, Dmat(λ) = [22 ps/(nm-km)](75 nm) = 1.65 ns/km
3-14. (a) Using Eqs. (2-48), (2-49), and (2-57), Eq. (3-21) becomes
b = 1 - uaV

u2a2 + w2a2 = w2
u 2 + w2
= β2 − k2n2

k2 n12 − β2 + β2 − k2 n2

n12 − n2

(b) Expand b as b = (β / k + n 2 )(β / k − n2 )
(n1 + n 2 )(n1 − n 2 )
Since n2< β/k < n1 , let β/k = n1(1 - δ) where 0 < δ < ∆ << 1. Thus,
5
β / k + n2
n1 + n2
= n1(1 −δ) + n2
n1 + n2
= 1 - n1
n 1 + n2
δ
Letting n2 = n1(1 - ∆) then yields
β / k + n2
n1 + n2
= 1 - δ
2 − ∆≈ 1 since
δ2 − ∆
<< 1
Therefore, b ≈ β / k − n2
n1 − n2
or β = k[bn1∆ + n2]
From n2 = n1(1 - ∆) we have
n1 = n2(1 - ∆)-1 = n2(1 + ∆ + ∆2 + ...) ≈ n2(1 + ∆)
Therefore, β = k[b n2(1 + ∆)∆ + n2] ≈ k n2(b∆ + 1)

travel time difference between the two rays shown here.
The travel time of each ray is given by

Since both impurity and intrinsic atoms generate conduction holes, the total

x2 + 4.759x - 0.436 = 0. Solving this quadratic equation yields (taking the plus
sign only)
x = 12 [ ]- 4.759 + (4.759)2 + 4(.436) = 0.090
The emission wavelength is λ = 1.2401.540 = 805 nm.
(b) Eg = 1.424 + 1.266(0.15) + 0.266(0.15)2 = 1.620 eV, so that

4-4. (a) The lattice spacings are as follows:
a(BC) = a(GaAs) = 5.6536 Ao
a(BD) = a(GaP) = 5.4512 Ao
a(AC) = a(InAs) = 6.0590 Ao
a(AD) = a(InP) = 5.8696 Ao
a(x,y) = xy 5.6536 + x(1-y) 5.4512 + (1-x)y 6.0590 + (1-x)(1-y)5.8696
= 0.1894y - 0.4184x + 0.0130xy + 5.8696
(b) Substituting a(xy) = a(InP) = 5.8696 Ao
into the expression for a(xy) in (a),
we have
y = 0.4184x
0.1894 - 0.0130x ≈ 0.4184x0.1894 = 2.20x
(c) With x = 0.26 and y = 0.56, we have

thus for case (a): ηext = 0.65(55.6 - 10)/55.6 = 0.53
For case (b): ηext = 0.65(34.9 - 10)/34.9 = 0.46

1.424 + 1.266(0.3) + 0.266(0.3)2 = 1.462 µm
From Eq. (4-38)
ηext = 0.8065 λ(µm) dP(mW)dI(mA)
Taking dI/dP = 0.5 mW/mA, we have ηext = 0.8065 (1.462)(0.5) = 0.590

Therefore the number of modes in the range 820-to-880 nm is
N = 880 - 820
0.25 = 240 modes
4-14. (a) Let Nm = n/λ = m2L be the wave number (reciprocal wavelength) of mode m.
The difference ∆N between adjacent modes is then
∆N = Nm - Nm-1 = 1

Thus for an incremental change in wavenumber ∆N, we have, in absolute values,

(b) Ith = (2.65×103 A/cm2)(250×10-4 cm)(10×10-4 cm) = 66.3 mA

For m = 2, λ = λB ± 5(1.20 nm) = 1570 nm ± 6.0 nm

4-22. Since the dc component of x(t) is 0.2, its range is -2.36 < x(t) < 2.76. The powerhas the form P(t) = P0[1 + mx(t)] where we need to find m and P0. The average
value is
< > P(t) = P0[1 + 0.2m] = 1 mW
The minimum value is
P(t) = P0[1 - 2.36m] ≥ 0 which implies m ≤ 1
2.36 = 0.42
Therefore for the average value we have < > P(t) = P0[1 + 0.2(0.42)] ≤ 1 mW,
which implies
P0 = 1
1.084 = 0.92 mW so thatP(t) = 0.92[1 + 0.42x(t)] mW and

4-24. From Eq. (4-58) P = P0 e-t/τm where P0 = 1 mW and τm = 2(5×104 hrs) = 105
hrs.
(a) 1 month = 720 hours. Therefore:
P(1 month) = (1 mW) exp(-720/105) = 0.99 mW
(b) 1 year = 8760 hours. Therefore
P(1 year) = (1 mW) exp(-8760/105) = 0.92 mW
(c) 5 years = 5×8760 hours = 43,800 hours. Therefore
P(5 years) = (1 mW) exp(-43800/105) = 0.65 mW
4-25. From Eq. (4-60) τs = K eEA/kBT
or ln τs = ln K + EA/kBT
where kB = 1.38×10-23 J/°K = 8.625×10-5 eV/°K
At T = 60°C = 333°K, we have
ln 4×104 = ln K + EA/[(8.625×10-5 eV)(333)]
or 10.60 = ln K + 34.82 EA (1)
At T = 90°C = 363°K, we have
ln 6500 = ln K + EA/[(8.625×10-5 eV)(363)]
or 8.78 = ln K + 31.94 EA (2)
Solving (1) and (2) for EA and K yields
EA = 0.63 eV and k = 1.11×10-5 hrs
Thus at T = 20°C = 293°K

τs = 1.11×10-5 exp0.63/[(8.625×10-5)(293)] = 7.45×105 hrs

We want to find the value of ωtd at which ( )S S*1/2

We want to find values of ωtd where ( )S S*1/2

By extrapolation, we find sinc x = 0.707 at x = 0.442.
Thus ωtd2 = 0.442 which implies ωtd = 0.884
(b) From Eq. (6-27) we have td = wvd

αsvd . Then
ωtd = 2πf3-dB td = 2πf3-dB 1
αsvd = 0.884 or
f3-dB = 0.884 αsvd/2π
6-12. (a) The RC time constant is
RC = Rε
0KsA
w = (104 Ω)(8.85 ×10−12F /m)(11.7)(5 × 10−8 m2 )
2 × 10−5m= 2.59 ns
(b) From Eq. (6-27), the carrier drift time is
7
td = wvd
= 20 ×10−6 m
4.4 × 104 m / s= 0.45 ns
c) 1αs
= 10-3 cm = 10 µm = 12 w
Thus since most carriers are absorbed in the depletion region, the carrier diffusion
time is not important here. The detector response time is dominated by the RC
time constant.
6-13. (a) With k1 ≈ k2 and keff defined in Eq. (6-10), we have
(1) 1 - k1(1 - k1)
1 - k2 = 1 -
k1 - k21
1 - k2 ≈ 1 -
k2 - k21
1 - k2 = 1 – keff

1 - k2 ≈
1 - 2k2 + k21
1 - k2
= 1 - k21 - k2
- k2 - k
21
1 - k2 = 1 - keff
Therefore Eq. (6-34) becomes Eq. (6-38):
Fe = keffMe + 2(1 - keff) - 1
Me(1 - keff) = keffMe +
2 -
1Me
(1 - keff)
(b) With k1 ≈ k2 and k'eff defined in Eq. (6-40), we have
(1)k2(1 - k1)
k21(1 - k2)
≈ k2 - k
21
k21(1 - k2)
= k'eff
(2)(1 - k1)2k2
k21(1 - k2)

Therefore Eq. (6-35) becomes Eq. (6-39): Fh = k'eff Mh -

(k'eff - 1)
6-14. (a) If only electrons cause ionization, then β = 0, so that from Eqs. (6-36) and (6-37), k1 = k2 = 0 and keff = 0. Then from Eq. (6-38)
Fe = 2 - 1
Me ≈ 2 for large Me
(b) If α = β, then from Eqs. (6-36) and (6-37), k1 = k2 = 1 so that
keff = 1. Then, from Eq. (6-38), we have Fe = Me.

7-6. (a) V = 1 volt and σ = 0.2 volts, so that V
2σ = 2.5. From Fig. 7-6 for
V2σ

we find Pe ≈ 7×10-3 errors/bit. Thus there are (2×105 bits/second)(7×10-3
errors/bit) = 1400 errors/second, so that
11400 errors/second = 7×10-4 seconds/error
(b) If V is doubled, then V
2σ = 5 for which Pe ≈ 3×10-7 errors/bit from Fig. 7-6.
Thus
1(2 × 105 bits / sec ond)(3 ×10 −7errors / bit )

(c) Pe = 0.5(0.0185) + 0.5(0.0065) = 0.0125

Then, from Eq. (7-2)
P(n) = Nn e-N
n! = (10.6)5 e-10.6

7-24. We need to find bon from Eq. (7-57). From Fig. 7-9 we have Q = 6 for a 10-9
BER. To evaluate Eq. (7-57) we also need the values of W and L. With γ = 0.9,Fig. 7-14 gives α = 0.3, so that Fig. 7-13 gives I2 = 0.543 and I3 = 0.073. Thus
from Eq. (7-86)
W = 3.51×1012
B+ 0.026B = 3.51×105 + 2.6×105 = 6.1×105
Using Eq. (7-58) to find L yields L = 2.871 at γ = 0.9 and x = 0.5. Substituting
these values into eq. (7-57) we have
bon = (6)5/3 (1.6×10-19/0.7) (6.1×105).5/3 (0.543)1/1.5 2.871 = 7.97×10-17 J
Thus Pr = bonB = (7.97×10-17 J)(107 b/s) = 7.97×10-10 W
orPr(dBm) = 10 log 7.97×10-10 = -61.0 dBm

Squaring again and factoring out a "b2" term yields
b2 - (2DF2)b + (F4D2 - 4WF2) = 0

Problem Solutions for Chapter 8
8-1. SYSTEM 1: From Eq. (8-2) the total optical power loss allowed between the light
source and the photodetector is
PT = PS - PR = 0 dBm - (-50 dBm) = 50 dB
= 2(lc) + αfL + system margin = 2(1 dB) + (3.5 dB/km)L + 6 dB
which gives L = 12 km for the maximum transmission distance.
SYSTEM 2: Similarly, from Eq. (8-2)
PT = -13 dBm - (-38 dBm) = 25 dB = 2(1 dB) + (1.5 dB/km)L + 6 dB
which gives L = 11.3 km for the maximum transmission distance.
8-2. (a) Use Eq. (8-2) to analyze the link power budget. (a) For the pin photodiode,
with 11 joints
PT = PS - PR = 11(lc) + αfL + system margin
= 0 dBm - (-45 dBm) = 11(2 dB) + (4 dB/km)L + 6 dB
which gives L = 4.25 km. The transmission distance cannot be met with these
components.
(b) For the APD
0 dBm - (-56 dBm) = 11(2 dB) + (4 dB/km)L + 6 dB
which gives L = 7.0 km. The transmission distance can be met with these
components.
8-3. From g(t) = ( )1 - e-2πBt u(t) we have
1 - e-2πBt10

1 - e-2πBt90

so that
2
e-2πBt10
= 0.9 and e-2πBt90
= 0.1
Then
e2πBtr

It follows that
2πBtr = ln 9 or tr = ln 92πB

(b) From Eq. (8-10), the 3-dB frequency is the point at which
G(ω) = 12 G(0), or exp
- (2πf3dB)2 σ2

Using σ as defined in Eq. (8-13), we have
f3dB = (2 ln 2)1/2

If τe is the time required for g(t) to drop to g(0)/e, then
g(τe) = 1
2π σ exp

2σ2 = g(0)
e = 1
2π σe
3
from which we have that τe = 2 σ. Since te is the full width of the pulse at the
1/e points, then te = 2τe = 2 2 σ.
From Eq. (8-10), the 3-dB frequency is the point at which
G(f3dB) = 12 G(0). Therefore with σ = te/(2 2 )
G(f3dB) = 1
2π exp

8-6. (a) We want to evaluate Eq. (8-17) for tsys.

PS - PR = 2(lc) + αfL + 6 dB, where PR = 11.5 log B - 60.5, PS = -13 dBm, αf =
1.5 dB/km, and lc = 1 dB,
so that L = (39.5 - 11.5 log B)/1.5 with B in Mb/s.
(b) Modal dispersion (one curve for q = 0.5 and one for q = 1)
tmod = 0.440L

With B in Mb/s, L = 1273/B for q =1, and L = (1273/B)2 for q = .5.
8-9. The margin can be found from
PS - PR = lc + 49(lsp) + 50αf + noise penalty + system margin
-13 - (-39) = 0.5 + 49(.1) + 50(.35) + 1.5 + system margin

8-10. Signal bits
8-11. The simplest method is to use an exclusive-OR gate (EXOR), which can be
implemented using a single integrated circuit. The operation is as follows: when
the clock period is compared with the bit cell and the inputs are not identical, the
EXOR has a high output. When the two inputs are identical, the EXOR output is
low. Thus, for a binary zero, the EXOR produces a high during the last half of the
bit cell; for a binary one, the output is high during the first half of the bit cell.

1.42 × 10−13 A 2 + 4.8 ×10−14A 2 + 8.25 ×10−13 A2 = 69.6
or, in dB, C/N = 10 log 69.6 = 18.4 dB.

11-12. Since the slope of the gain-versus -input power curve is –0.5, then for a 6-dB drop
in the input signal, the gain increases by +3 dB.
1. Thus at the first amplifier, a –10.1-dBm signal now arrives and experiences a
+10.1-dB gain. This gives a 0-dBm output (versus a normal +3-dBm output).
2. At the second amplifier, the input is now –7.1 dBm (down 3 dB from the usual
–4.1 dBm level). Hence the gain is now 8.6 dB (up 1.5 dB), yielding an output
of
–7.1 dBm + (7.1 + 1.5) dB = 1.5 dBm
6
3. At the third amplifier, the input is now –5.6 dBm (down 1.5 dB from the usual
–4.1 dBm level). Hence the gain is up 0.75 dB, yielding an output of
–5.6 dBm + (7.1 + 0.75) dB = 2.25 dBm
4. At the fourth amplifier, the input is now –4.85 dBm (down 0.75 dB from the
usual –4.1 dBm level). Hence the gain is up 0.375 dB, yielding an output of
–4.85 dBm + (7.1 + 0.375) dB = 2.63 dBm
which is within 0.37 dB of the normal +3 dBm level.

i =1
N
∑ (i) ≤1 mW .
The inputs are 1 µW (-30 dBm) each and the gain is 26 dB (a factor of 400).
7
Thus for one input signal, the output is (400)(1 µW) = 400 µW or –4 dBm.
For two input signals, the total output is 800 µW or –1 dBm. Thus the level of
each individual output signal is 400 µW or –4 dBm.
For four input signals, the total input level is 4 µW or –24 dBm. The output then
reaches its limit of 0 dBm, since the maximum gain is 26 dB. Thus the level of each
individual output signal is 250 µW or –6 dBm.
Similarly, for eight input channels the maximum output level is o dBm, so the level
of each individual output signal is 1/8(1 mW) = 125 µW or –9 dBm.
(b) When the pump power is doubled, the outputs for one and two inputs remains
at the same level. However, for four inputs, the individual output level is 500 µW
or –3 dBm, and for 8 inputs, the individual output level is 250 µW or –6 dBm.

Problem Solutions for Chapter 12
12-1. We need to evaluate Pin using Eq. (12-11). Here Fc = 0.20,
CT = 0.05, Fi = 0.10, P0 = 0.5 mW, and A0 = e−2.3(3) / 10 = 0.933
Values of Pin as a function of N are given in the table below. Pin in
dBm is found from the relationship Pin(dBm) = 10 log
Pin (mW )1 mW
N Pin(nW) Pin(dBm) N Pin(nW) Pin(dBm)
2 387 -34.1 8 5.0 -53.0
3 188 -37.3 9 2.4 -56.2
4 91 -40.4 10 1.2 -59.2
5 44.2 -43.5 11 0.6 -62.2
6 21.4 -46.7 12 0.3 -65.5
7 10.4 -49.8
(b) Using the values in the above table, the operating margin for 8 stations is
-53 dBm - (-58 dBm) = 5 dB
(c) To have a 6-dB power margin, we can transmit over at most seven stations.
The dynamic range with N = 7 is found from Eq. (12-13):
DR = −10(N − 2) log .933(.8)2 (.95)2(.9)[ ]= −50 log (0.485) = 15.7 dBm
12-2. (a) Including a power margin, we have from Eq. (12-16)
PS − PR − power marg in = Lexcess + α(2L) + 2Lc +10log N
Thus
0 – (-38 dBm) – 6 dB = 3 dB + (0.3 dB/km)2(2 km) + 2(1.0 dB) + 10 log N
2
so that 10 log N = 25.8. This yields N = 380.1, so that 380 stations can be
attached.
(b) For a receiver sensitivity of –32 dBm, one can attach 95 stations.
12-3. (b) Let the star coupler be located in the ceiling in the wire room, as shown in the
figure below.
For any row we need seven wires running from the end of the row of offices to
each individual office. Thus, in any row we need to have (1+2+3+4+5+6+7)x15 ft
= 420 ft of optical fiber to connect the offices. From the wiring closet to the
second row of offices (row B), we need 8(10 + 15) ft = 200 ft; from the wiring
closet to the third row of offices (row C), we need 8(10 + 30) ft = 320 ft; and from
AWireroom B C D
3
the wiring closet to the fourth row of offices (row D), we need 8(20 + 45) ft = 520
ft of cable. For the 28 offices we also need 28x7 ft = 196 ft for wall risers.
Therefore for each floor we have the following cable needs:
(1) 4 x 420 ft for row runs
(2) 200 + 320 + 520 ft = 1040 for row connections
(3) 196 ft for wall risers
Thus, the total per floor = 2916 ft
Total cable in the building: 2x9 ft risers + 2916 ft x 2 floors = 5850 ft
12-4. Consider the following figure:
(a) For a bus configuration:
Cable length = N rows×(M-1)stations/row + (N-1) row interconnects
= N(M-1)d + (N-1)d = (MN-1)d
(b) The ring is similar to the bus, except that we need to close the loop with one
cable of length d. Therefore the cable length = MNd
(c) In this problem we consider the case where we need individual cables run
from the star to each station. Then the cable length is
L = cables run along the M vertical rows + cables run along the N horizontal
rows:

12-5. (a) Let the star be located at the relative position (m,n). Then

2(M + N + 2) − Nm(M − m + 1) − Mn(N − n +1)
d
(b) When the star coupler is located in one corner of the grid, then
m = n= 1, so that the expression in (a) becomes
L = MN
2(M + N + 2) − NM − MN
d = MN
2(M + N − 2)d
(c) To find the shortest distance, we differentiate the expression for L given in (a)
with respect to m and n, and set the result equal to zero:
dLdm
= N(m - 1 - M) + Nm = 0 so that m = M +1
2
Similarly
dLdn
= M(n - 1 - N) + nM = 0 yields n = N + 1
2
Thus for the shortest cable runs the star should be located in the center of the grid.
12-6. (a) For a star network, one cannot reuse wavelengths. Thus, since each node must
be connected to N – 1 other nodes through a central point, we need N – 1
wavelengths.
5
For a bus network, these equations can easily be verified by drawing sample
diagrams with several even or odd stations.
For a ring network, each node must be connected to N – 1 other nodes. Without
wavelength reuse one thus needs N(N – 1) wavelengths. However, since each
wavelength can be used twice in the network, the number of wavelengths needed
is N(N-1)/2.
12-7. From Tables 12-4 and 12-5, we have the following:
OC-48 output for 40-km links: –5 to 0 dBm; α = 0.5 dB/km; PR = -18 dBm
OC-48 output for 80-km links: –2 to +3 dBm; α = 0.3 dB/km; PR = -27 dBm
The margin is found from: Margin = Ps − PR( )− αL − 2Lc
(a) Minimum power at 40 km:
Margin = [-2 – (-27)] – 0.5(40) –2(1.5) = +2 dB
(b) Maximum power at 40 km:
Margin = [0 – (-27)] – 0.5(40) –2(1.5) = +4 dB
(c) Minimum power at 80 km:
Margin = [-2 – (-27)] – 0.3(80) –2(1.5) = -2 dB
(d) Maximum power at 80 km:
Margin = [3 – (-27)] – 0.3(80) –2(1.5) = +3 dB

Node 3: add/drop wavelengths 1, 2, and 3
Node 4: add/drop wavelengths 1, 4, and 5

(a) The following nine 3rd-order waves are generated due to FWM:

ν112 = 2(ν2 - ∆ν) – ν2 = ν2 - 2∆ν
ν123 = (ν2 - ∆ν) + ν2 – (ν2 + ∆ν) = ν2 - 2∆ν

ν223 = 2ν2 – (ν2 + ∆ν) = ν2 - ∆ν = ν1
ν132 = (ν2 - ∆ν) + (ν2 + ∆ν) – ν2 = ν2
ν221 = 2ν2 – (ν2 - ∆ν) = ν2 + ∆ν = ν3
ν231 = ν2 + (ν2 + ∆ν) – (ν2 - ∆ν) = ν2 + 2∆ν
ν331 = 2(ν2 + ∆ν) – (ν2 - ∆ν) = ν2 + 3∆ν
ν332 = 2(ν2 + ∆ν) – ν2 = ν2 + 2∆ν
(b) In this case the nine 3rd-order waves are:
ν113 = 2(ν2 - ∆ν) – (ν2 + 1.5∆ν) = ν2 – 1.5∆ν
ν112 = 2(ν2 - ∆ν) – ν2 = ν2 - 2∆ν
ν123 = (ν2 - ∆ν) + ν2 – (ν2 + 1.5∆ν) = ν2 – 2.5∆ν
ν223 = 2ν2 – (ν2 + 1.5∆ν) = ν2 – 1.5∆ν
ν132 = (ν2 - ∆ν) + (ν2 + 1.5∆ν) – ν2 = ν2 + 0.5∆ν
ν221 = 2ν2 – (ν2 - ∆ν) = ν2 + ∆ν
ν231 = ν2 + (ν2 + 1.5∆ν) – (ν2 - ∆ν) = ν2 + 2.5∆ν
ν331 = 2(ν2 + 1.5∆ν) – (ν2 - ∆ν) = ν2 + 4∆ν
ν332 = 2(ν2 + 1.5∆ν) – ν2 = ν2 + 3∆ν

where L1 is the length of the current fiber, L2 is the length cut off, and V1 and V2

13-5 From Eq. (13-4), Pout (f) / Pin (f) = H(f) . To measure the frequency response, we
need a constant input amplitude, that is, Pin(f) = Pin(0). Thus,
P(f)P(0)
=Pout (f) / Pin (f)Pout (0) / Pin (0)
=H(f)H(0)
= H(f)
The following table gives some representative values of H(f) for different values of2σ:

13-6 To estimate the value of D, consider the slope of the curve in Fig. P13-6 at λ =
1575 nm. There we have ∆τ = 400 ps over the wavelength interval from 1560 nm
to 1580 nm, i.e., ∆λ = 20 nm. Thus
D =
1L
∆τ∆λ
=1
10 km400 ps20 nm
= 2 ps /(nm ⋅ km)
3
Then, using this value of D at 1575 nm and with λ0 = 1548 nm, we have
S0 =
D λ( )λ − λ0
=2 ps /(nm ⋅ km)
(1575 − 1548) nm= 0.074 ps /(nm 2 ⋅ km)
13-7 With k = 1, λstart = 1525 nm, and λstop = 1575 nm, we have Ne = 17 extrema.
Substituting these values into Eq. (13-14) yields 1.36 ps.
13-8 At 10 Gb/s over a 100-km link, the given equation yields:
PISI ≈ 261 ps( )2 0.5 1− 0.5( )
100 ps( )2 = 6.5 ×10−4 dB
Similarly, at 10 Gb/s over a 1000-km link, PISI ≈ 0.065 dB .
This is the same result at 100 Gb/s over a 100-km link.
At 100 Gb/s over a 1000-km link, we have 6.5 dB.
13-9 For a uniform attenuation coefficient, β is independent of y. Thus, Eq. (13-16)
becomes
P(x) = P(0)exp −β dy0
x
∫
= P(0)e−βx
Writing this as exp(−βx) = P(0)/ P(x) and taking the logarithm on both sides
yields
βx log e = log
P(0)P(x)
. Since α = β(10 log e) , this becomes
αx =10 log
P(0)P(x)
For a fiber of length x = L with P(0) = PN being the near-end input power, this
equation reduces to Eq. (13-1).

13-10 Consider an isotropically radiating point source in the fiber. The power from this
point source is radiated into a sphere that has a surface area 4πr2. The portion of
this power captured by the fiber in the backward direction at a distance r from the
point source is the ratio of the area A = πa2 to the sphere area 4πr2. If θ is the
acceptance angle of the fiber core, then A = πa2 = π(rθ)2. Therefore S, as defined
in Eq. (13-18), is given by
S =A
4πr2 =πr 2θ2
4πr2 =θ2

From Eq. (2-23), the acceptance angle is
sin θ ≈ θ =

Consider the light scattered from an infinitesimal interval dz that is located at L =
Tvgr. Light scattered from this point will return to the OTDR at time t = 2T. Upon
inspection of the pulse of width W being scattered form the point L, it can be
deduced that the back-scattered power seen by the OTDR at time 2T is the
integrated sum of the light scattered from the locations z = L – W/2 to z = L.
Thus, summing up the power from infinitesimal short intervals dz from the whole
pulse and taking the fiber attenuation into account yields
Ps L( ) = Sαs0

which holds for L ≥ W/2. For distances less than W/2, the lower integral limit gets
replaced by W – 2L.
13-13 For very short pulse widths, we have that αW << 1. Thus the expression in
parenthesis becomes
1α
1 − e−αW( )≈ 1α
1 − 1− αW( )[ ]= W
Thus
Ps L( ) ≈ S αs W P0 e−2αL
13-14 (a) From the given equation, for an 0.5-dB accuracy, the SNR is 4.5 dB.
The total loss of the fiber is (0.33 dB/km)(50 km) = 16.5 dB.
The OTDR dynamic range D is
D = SNR + αL + splice loss
= 4.5 dB +16.5 dB + 0.5 dB = 21.5 dB
6
Here the splice loss is added to the dynamic range because the noise that limits the
achievable accuracy shows up after the event.
(b) For a 0.05-dB accuracy, the OTDR dynamic range must be 26.5 dB.
13-15 To find the fault-location accuracy dL with an OTDR, we differentiate Eq. (13-23):
dL =c
2ndt
where is the accuracy to which the time difference between the original and
reflected pulses must be measured. For dL ≤ 1 m, we need
dt =
2nc
dL ≤2(1.5)
3 × 108 m / s
(0.5 m) = 5 ns
To measure dt to this accuracy, the pulse width must be ≤ 0.5dt (because we are
measuring the time difference between the original and reflected pulse widths).
Thus we need a pulse width of 2.5 ns or less to locate a fiber fault within 0.5 m of
its true position.
