INTRODUCTION

This project done on communication using optic fibres

can be used for data transmission over small distances in computer

networks, closed circuit T.V s etc. The information carrying capacity

is directly proportional to the frequency or bandwidth of the carrier

wave. This system uses light as a carrier wave in the frequency range

10A13 Hz to 10 A16 Hz. Hence information transmission capacity

increases by several order of magnitude.Thus it overcome almost all

the drawbacks of communication systems involving electrical

signals.

BLOCK DIAGRAM EXPLANATION

The block diagram given in the figure shows a basic opticfibre communication system.lt mainly consists of three elements

1) Optical transmitter 2) The optic fibre cable3) The optical receiver

This general description is appropriate for analog as well asdigital communication systems.Fibre optic technology and communicationtechnology are involved in this system.

1) The optical transmitter It consists of electronic components which convert the electrical

signals into corresponding optical signals. The data in the form of electricalsignal is provided to drive the circuit. This is achieved by using an astablemultivibrator which generate a series of digital data in the form of ones andzeroes. This signal is used to turn ON and OFF an LED.This is done bymeans of a transistor switching circuit.The electrical signals are convertedinto light signals by an optical source consisting of an LED. These lightsignals are then transmitted through the optic fibre cable. The LED provideslight of constant wavelength and low transmission loss. The light injected

into the OFC is a faithful representation of the information.

2) The optic fibre cableIt consists of glass fibres which act as wave guide for optical signal. For

long distance transmission^ or more fibres are joined together. The opticfibre is made of three layers namely core, cladding and protectivecovering.Optic fibre works on the principle of total internal reflection.

3) The optical receiver It consists of a photo detector, amplifier and a signal indicator. The

photodetector converts optical signal into corresponding electrical signal.Here an LDR is used to detect the incoming light signals. The amplifier amplifies the signal. An LED is used to indicate the reception of the data.

CIRCUIT DIAGRAM EXPLANATION

OPTICAL TRANSMITTER

The circuit for a basic optic fibre communication system for

transmitting a series of digital data is shown in the figure. For the purpose of

generating the digital signals, an astable multivibrator is designed.

When the circuit is connected as shown in the above figure(pin 2 and

6) connected it triggers itself and free runs as a multivibrator.The external

capacitor charges through Rl and R2 and discharges through R2 only. Thus the

duty cycle may be precisely set by the ratio of these two resistors. In the astable

mode of operational charges and discharges between 1/3 Vcc and 2/3 Vcc. As in

the triggered mode ,the charge and discharge times are therefore frequency are

independent of the supply voltage.

The charge time(output high) is given by: tl=.693(Rl+R2)Cl And the

discharge time (output low) by : t2=0.693(R2)Cl Thus the total period

t is given by : T=tl+t2= 0.693(R1+2R2)C1 The frequency of

Page 6: Optic Fibre Communication System

8/3/2019 Optic Fibre Communication System

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/optic-fibre-communication-system 6/25

oscillation is then : f=l/T=1.44/(Rl+2R2)Cl The duty cycle is given by

:D=R2/R1+2R2

The output signals thus produced by the astable multivibrator is fed to a

transistor switching circuit.For this a BF 194 transistor is used.

Switching circuit

An LED is connected to the collector of the transistor which will be turned ON

and OFF according to the input digital data. As the input to the base of the

transistor goes high ,the transistor switches to saturation. Current passes through

the transistor and therefore LED glows. As the input to the transistor goes low

,the transistor switches to cut off and therefore LED doesn't glow.

Superluminiscent LEDs are used here. For proper operation of astable

multivibrator ,a +10 V supply and for the switching circuit a +5V supply is

used. The LED thus produces the optical signals which are to be transmitted.

The LED is coupled to the OFC by means of suitable coupler without any loss

of data.Thus the signal is effectively transmitted through the OFC. OPTIC

FIBRE CABLE

Here multimode type OFC is used. The OFC is made from silica glass.

A plastic coating is also provided. They have larger numerical aperture to

facilitate efficient coupling to inherent light sources such as light emitting

diodes. They provide bandwidth in the GHz range.

Optic fibre works on the principle of total internal reflection of light.

When a ray of light passes from a dielectric medium of refractive

Page 7: Optic Fibre Communication System

8/3/2019 Optic Fibre Communication System

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/optic-fibre-communication-system 7/25

index nl (denser) to other of refractive index n2(rarer) ,and when the angle of

incidence is critical angle e, then the refracted ray in the fibre just grazes the

surfaces separating the two medium.ie the angle of refraction becomes

90°.When the angle of incidence becomes greater than critical angle, the light

ray gets totaly internally reflected into the same medium. This phenomenon is

called total internal reflection. Any light ray incident on the fibre edge at an

angle greater than 0a meets the core cladding interface at an angle less than

critical angle and will not be totally internally reflected and transmitted. Only

the light rays that enter the fibre edge within the angle Oa will be accepted by

the fibre for total internal reflection. Thus this angle of incidence 0a is called the

acceptance angle. The numerical aperture of a fibre deopends on the acceptance

angle 0a by the relation Sin Oa=NA.

Optic fibres are very light and easy to handle. Using these the hazards

due to short circuit can be avoided. It is also ideal for secret communication

because it is very difficult to tap. Optic fibres are unaffected by outdoor

atmospheric conditions like lightning. Besides there is no possibility of spark

from broken fibre. It will not corrode and is unaffected by most chemicals. They

are also immune to electromagnetic interference and avoid crosstalk.Also

transmission losses are very low.

The light transmitted through the OFC has to be properly received.

For this optical signal has to be converted into corresponding electrical form . To

perform this optical detectors are used. Here an LDR is used for this purpose. The

OFC is effectively coupled to the LDR without lossage of incoming data. The

LDR is placed in the biasing circuit of the transistor BF547.As the incoming signal

goes high, the resistance of the LDR goes low. Current flows and proper biasing is

achieved. The transistor then switches to saturation. An LED is connected at the

collector of the transistor as an indicator of the incoming signal. As the transistor

switches to saturation, current flows and LED glows. When the incoming signal

goes low ,the resistance of the LDR becomes high. Current doesn't flow.

Transistor switches to cut off and therefore the LED turns OFF. Thus the data has

been effectively transmitted from the transmitter circuit to the receiver.

This circuit forms the basis of all optic fibre systems.

POWER SUPPLYA regulated power supply is an electronic circuit that is

designed to provide a constant dc voltage of predetermined value across load

terminals irrespective of ac mains fluctuations or load variations. It mainly

consists of an ordinary power supply and a voltage regulating device

The system requires a regulated +5 v supply for the switching

circuit and a +10V supply for the astable multivibrator. A +5V supply is also

needed for the receiver circuit. These can be delivered from the 230V domestic

supply. Before applying this to the system we must step down this high voltage to

an appropriate value. After that it should be rectified. This will provide a

Page 9: Optic Fibre Communication System

8/3/2019 Optic Fibre Communication System

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/optic-fibre-communication-system 9/25

unidirectional current. To achieve a +5V DC we should regulate this. All these are

done in power supply circuitry, which is explained below.

A 12-0-12 V step down transformer is connected to provide the

necessary low voltage. The transformer also works as an isolator between the hot

and cold end. The hot end refers to the 230 V supply, which is a hazardous one,

and the cold one refers to the safe, low voltage. Now the hot portion appears only

at the primary of the transformer.The secondary of the transformer deliver 12 V ac

pulses along with a ground. This ac supply goes to a center tap rectifier, which

converts the ac into a unidirectional voltage.The ripples in the resulting supply is

filtered and smoothed by a 2200 microfarad /25V capacitor. The 0.1 microfarad

capacitor bypasses any

high frequency noises.The resulting supply has the magnitude above 17 V. This

voltage is fed to the regulator IC 7805 and 7810.This IC 7805 provides a

regulated 5V positive supply at its 3rdpin.The required input for this is more than

7.5 V. The IC 7810 provides a regulated 10V positive supply at its 3 rd pin

PCB DESIGNING AND FABRICATION

DESIGN AND PCB FABRICATION

The PCB consists of an insulating base materialon which copper conductors are etched by photolithography or screen printing.The insulating materials provides electrical isolation and mechanical rigidity for the printed conductors as such it should possess the essential electrical andmechanical properties and good flexural strength, reasonable high temperaturewith standing capability, low moisture absorption warpage, good merchantability,good electrical resistance, high dielectric strength, low dielectric constant, lowdissipation factor etc.

PHOTOGRAPHIC METHOD OF PCB FABRICATIONPhotographic method is another commonly used PCB fabrication

method. It is more expensive and widely used for massive production.

SCREEN PRINTINGIn this method, a mesh is prepared and is placed over the copper

sheets. Screen printing material is pasted over the areas where the circuit is to beland. All other areas are kept open. The different steps used in PCB fabrication arelisted below :-

Cutting copper clad lamination

The copper clad laminates are manufactured in 4 inch*3 inch size.From this sheet pieces are cut off to the required size using a shearing machine.For the purpose of handling the PCB during fabrication, borderline of PCB. Henceatleast cutting PCB provides 10 mm of additional space from the actual requiredPCB size.

CleaningThe copper oxides may build up on the copper surface. Inorder to

remove this following procedure is required :-a) Wipe with cotton wool socked in trichloro ethylene

b) Dipping in 10% HC1 for 1 minute at room temperature.c) Scrub with pumice powder.

APPLICATION INFORMATION

MONOSTABLE OPERATION In the monostablemode, the timer functions as a one-shot. Referring tofigure 10 the external capacitor is initially helddischarged by a transistor inside the timer.

Figure11

The circuit triggers on a negative-going input signalwhen the level reaches 1/3 Vcc. Once triggered, thecircuit remains in this state until the set time haselapsed, even if it is triggered again during this in-terval. The duration of the output HIGH state is givenby t = 1.1 R1C1 and is easily determined by figure 12.Notice that since the charge rate and the thresholdlevel of the comparator are both directly proportionalto supply voltage, the timing interval is independentof supply. Applying a negative pulse simultaneouslyto the reset terminal (pin 4) and the trigger terminal

(pin 2) during the timing cycle discharges the exter-nal capacitor and causes the cycle to start over. Thetiming cycle now starts on the positive edge of thereset pulse. During the time the reset pulse in ap-plied, the output is driven to its LOW state. When anegative trigger pulse is applied to pin 2, the flip-flopis set, releasing the short circuit across the externalcapacitor and driving the output HIGH. The voltageacross the capacitor increases exponentially with thetime constant x = R1C1. When the voltage across thecapacitor equals 2/3 V cc , the comparator resets theflip-flop which then discharge the capacitor rapidlyand drivers the output to its LOW state.

Figure 11 shows the actual waveforms generated inthis mode of operation.

When Reset is not used, it should be tied high toavoid any possibly or false triggering.

Thus the duty cycle may be precisely set by the ratioof these two resistors.In the astable mode of operation, C1 charges anddischarges between 1/3 Vcc and 2/3 Vcc. As in thetriggered mode, the charge and discharge times andtherefore frequency are independent of the supplyvoltage.

Figure 18 : Linear Ramp.50% DUTY CYCLE OSCILLATORFor a 50% duty cycle the resistors R A and R E maybe connected as in figure 19. The time preriod fortheoutput high is the same as previous,ti = 0.693 R A C.

For the output low it is t .2 =

[(RARB)/(R A + R B)] CLn 1

2R B - R A

Thus the frequency of oscillation is f ,ti + t 2

Note that this circuit will not oscillate if R B is greater
