Abstract: | An optical fiber communications link was installed for the purpose of evaluating the applicability of optical fiber technology to the distribution of frequency and timing reference signals. 10 incorporates a 1.5km length of optical fiber cable containing two multi-mode optical fibers. The two fibers were welded together at one end of the cable to attain a path length of 3km. This paper reports preliminary measurements made on this link, including Allan Variance and power spectral density of phase noise. |
