•Availability of this mode of communication at remotely located substations is the deciding factor

Fiber-Optic CommunicationFiber-Optic Communication Fiber-optic communication is a method of transmitting Fiber-optic communication is a method of transmitting

information from one place to another by sending light through information from one place to another by sending light through an optical fiber. The light forms an electromagnetic carrier wave an optical fiber. The light forms an electromagnetic carrier wave that is modulated to carry informationthat is modulated to carry information

• The process of communicating using fiber-optics involves the following basic steps: Creating the optical signal using a transmitter Relaying the signal along the fiber, ensuring that the signal does not become too distorted or weak Receiving the optical signal and converting it into an electrical signal
