4.1. A silica multimode step index fiber has a core refractive index of1.46. Determin the optical loss in decibels due to Fresnel reflection at a fiber joint with: (a) a small air (b) an index-matching epoxy which has a refractive index of 1.40. It may be assumed that the fiber axes and end faces are perfectly aligned at the joint. gap; Ans. (a) 0.31 dB; (b) 3.8 × 10-4 dB
Quantization and Resolution
Quantization is a methodology of carrying out signal modulation by the process of mapping input values from an infinitely long set of continuous values to a smaller set of finite values. Quantization forms the basic algorithm for lossy compression algorithms and represents a given analog signal into digital signals. In other words, these algorithms form the base of an analog-to-digital converter. Devices that process the algorithm of quantization are known as a quantizer. These devices aid in rounding off (approximation) the errors of an input function called the quantized value.
