Balance SignalingA balanced transmission line is one whose currents are symmetric withrespect to ground so that all current flows through the transmission line andthe load
◦ none through ground
Note that line balance depends on the current through the line, not thevoltage across the line
It is also called differential signaling

FYI:◦ Coaxial is an example of unbalanced transmission line◦ Many types of antenna (dipoles, yagi etc.) are balanced load◦ So, to feed balanced antenna with unbalance transmission lines we have to
use baluns (balance-unbalance)

Shielded Twisted Pair (STP)Twisted pair cables are often shielded in attempt to preventelectromagnetic interference.Because the shielding is made of metal, it may also serve as aground.
However, usually a shielded or a screened twisted pair cablehas a special grounding wire added called a drain wire .This shielding can be applied to individual pairs, or to thecollection of pairs.
When shielding is applied to the collection of pairs, this isreferred to as screening .The shielding must be grounded for the shielding to work.

Crosstalk
Whenever a current flows through a conductor, a magnetic field is set up around the conductor in adirection given by the right-hand corkscrew rule
Because the signal on a transmission line is an electro-magnetic wavefront propagating along the line,current flowing in one direction in one conductor flows in the opposite direction in the other conductor.
The magnetic field around the right hand conductor flows anti-clockwise.
At some distance from the line the effects of the fields cancel out, but near to the conductors the fields re-inforce, and are in the same direction throughout the length of the transmission line

27/86
If we now bring another pair of conductors close to the first, the re-inforcingfield created by the currents flowing in the first line cuts through the plane ofthe new line, and this has the effect of inducing current into the new line.
We have created a very long narrow transformer, and have caused a couplingbetween the two lines which is crosstalk
27
-
8/18/2019 Jartel-3 Guided Transmission Media
28/86
Now let us see what happens if we twist the interfering pair.
28
The magnetic fields still rotate around the conductors in the same directions, and they still re-inforce near
to the pair. But now they are not pointing in the same direction all along the length of the line. At everytwist, the direction is reversed, so the net effect on the adjacent pair is cancelled out.
If the second pair is twisted as well, the crosstalk is reduced still further, provided that the twists in thetwo pairs are not in phase with each other. This is an important consideration when designing andmanufacturing cables.
By twisting the pairs we have reduced the potential for crosstalk.

PSNEXTPower sum NEXT (PSNEXT) isactually a calculation, not ameasurement
PSNEXT is a measure of differencein signal strength betweendisturbing pairs and a disturbedpair
A larger number (less crosstalk) ismore desirable than a smallernumber (more crosstalk)
33

8/18/2019 Jartel-3 Guided Transmission Media
34/86
FEXT
Far End Crosstalk (FEXT) is measured at both ends of a cable, bytransmitting a signal into one pair at one end and measuring the resultingsignal power on an adjacent pair at the other end.The FEXT is given by
◦ FEXT = POUT/P IN = 10 log (P OUT/P IN) dBA higher FEXT values correspond to better cable performance
FEXT is highly influenced by the length of the cable, since the signalstrength inducing the crosstalk is affected by how much it has beenattenuated from its source

Equal Level Far End Crosstalk (ELFEXT)
ELFEXT is a calculated result, rather than a measurementIt is derived by subtracting the attenuation of the disturbing pairfrom the Far End Crosstalk (FEXT) this pair induces in anadjacent pair.ELFEXT loss is critical when two or more wire-pairs carry signalsin the same direction.50 m link example:
◦ For FEXT = 45 dB and Attenuation = 11 dB, then ELFEXT = 45 - 11 = 34 dB

Propagation DelayPropagation Delay is the time required for data signal to travel from itssource to its destination over a single pairIf we have more than one pair, for example bellow we have four pairs, thensince each pair has different twist rates, each pair length is different
◦ Therefore, the propagation delay in a 4 pair cable is different for each pair
This variance (delay skew) should not exceed 50 nS on any link segment upto 100 meters

Delay SkewDelay skew is a calculation, derived from the propagation delayDelay Skew is the difference in Propagation Delay time between thefastest (shortest) and slowest (longest) pairs within the same cablesheathWell-constructed and properly installed structured cabling should havea skew less than 50 nanoseconds (nSec) over a 100-meter linkLower skew is betterAnything under 25 nSec is excellent.Skew between 45 and 50 nanoseconds is marginally acceptable

Insertion Loss (Attenuation)Attenuation is the loss of electrical power as signal travelsalong a cable
Any passive device inserted in a circuit, such as a cables, has anattenuation and so it is also called insertion loss
Insertion loss (expressed in dB) measures the amount ofenergy that is lost as the signal arrives at the receiving end ofthe cabling linkInsertion loss also increases with the length of the linkThe smaller insertion loss measurement values (expressed indB) are better than larger values.

Depending upon the gauge of wire used in constructing thepairs, 24 gauge wires will have less attenuation than thesame length 26 gauge (thinner) wires.◦ American Wire Gauge (AWG) is a standardized method of measuring
wire diameter

Attenuation to Crosstalk Ratio(ACR)/Headroom
The difference between NEXT (in dB) and Attenuation (in dB)ACR is a very good indicator of the real transmission quality of the linkThe higher the ACR the better as it implies that the desired signal is not being so severelyattenuated that the effect of crosstalk noise will become too significantIn communication channels it is generally considered that a positive value of ACR is required forsuccessful error free transmission
Minimum value of ACR of the cabling system in the applicable bandwidth should be greater than10 dB

Return LossReturn Loss (RL) is a measure of the reflected energy from a transmitted signal at all locationsalong the link and is expressed in decibel (dB).
A higher RL values correspond to better cable performance
Mismatches predominantly occur at locations where connectors are present, but can also occur incable where variations in characteristic impedance along the length of the cable are excessive
Other RL factors include manufacturing tolerances, installation and termination methods such askinks in the cable, poor cable construction, improper termination or a compressed cable

Return loss dB = 20 log (Z n + Z 0 )/(Z n − Z 0 )Zn = line impedanceZ0 = characteristics impedance

Example:◦ Consider the following network’s output port and its termination. The characteristic impedance ( Z 0 ) of
the output of the network is 600 . We have terminated this network in its characteristic impedance(Z0). Let us assume for this example that it is 600 . How well does the network’s output port match itscharacteristic impedance?
◦ Return loss tells us this◦ First let us suppose that Zn is exactly 600 . If we substitute that in the equation, what do we get? Wehave then in the denominator 0. Anything divided by zero is infinity. Here we have the ideal case, an
infinite return loss; a perfect match.◦ Suppose Zn were 700 . What would the return loss be? We would then have:◦ Return lossdB = 20 log(700 + 600)/(700 − 600) = 20 log(1300/100) = 20 log 13 = 22.28 dB .

Optical Fiber AdvantagesWeight and Size
◦ Fiber cable is significantly smaller and lighter than electrical cables to do the same job
Material Cost◦ Fiber cable costs significantly less than copper cable for the same transmission capacity
Information Capacity◦ Recently, bit-rates of up to 14 Tbit/s have been reached over a single 160 km line using optical amplifiers
No Electrical Connection◦ Electrical connections have problems:
◦ Ground loops (in a conductor connecting two points that are supposed to be at the same potential, often ground, but areactually at different potentials) causing noises and interferences◦ Dangerous (must be protected)◦ Lightning poses a severe hazard
No Electromagnetic Interference◦ Because the connection is not electrical, you can neither pick up nor create electrical interference
(the major source of noise)
Longer distances between Regenerators (hundreds of kilometers)Open Ended Capacity
◦ The maximum theoretical capacity of installed fiber is very great (almost infinite)
Better Security◦ It is possible to tap fiber optical cable. But it is very difficult to do and the additional loss caused by the tap is
relatively easy to detect

If a short pulse of light from a source such as a laseror an LED is sent down a narrow fiber, it will bechanged (degraded) by its passage down the fiber
◦ It will emerge (depending on the distance) much weaker◦
lengthened in time (“smeared out”), and◦ distorted in other waysThe reasons for the above are as follows:
◦ Attenuation◦ Maximum Power◦
Polarization◦ Dispersion◦ Noise
69
-
8/18/2019 Jartel-3 Guided Transmission Media
70/86
AttenuationThe pulse will be weaker because all glassabsorbs light
◦ More accurately, impurities in the glass canabsorb light but the glass itself does notabsorb light at the wavelengths of interest
In addition, variations in the uniformity ofthe glass cause scattering of the lightBoth the rate of light absorption and theamount of scattering are dependent on thewavelength of the light and thecharacteristics of the particular glassMost light loss in a modern fiber is causedby scattering
So, internally, attenuation is caused by :◦ Absorption◦ Scattering
70

8/18/2019 Jartel-3 Guided Transmission Media

External factors ofattenuation◦ Micro Bending
◦ Caused by small deviationsin fiber core
◦ Macro Bending

8/18/2019 Jartel-3 Guided Transmission Media
73/86
Maximum PowerThere is a practical limit to the amount of power that can be sent on afiber
◦ This is about half a watt (in standard single-mode fiber) and is due to anumber of non-linear effects that are caused by the intense electromagneticfield in the core when high power is present
73

8/18/2019 Jartel-3 Guided Transmission Media
74/86
PolarizationOne way of thinking about light is toconceive of it as an electromagneticwave just like a radio wave
◦ An electromagnetic wave consists oftwo fields: An electric field and amagnetic field
◦ Both of these fields have a directionand a strength (or amplitude)
◦ Within the electromagnetic wave thetwo fields (electric and magnetic) areoriented at precisely 90° to one another
74
-
8/18/2019 Jartel-3 Guided Transmission Media
75/86
The orientation of theelectromagnetic field is referred toas “polarization”
The established convention whendiscussing polarization of
electromagnetic fields is to refer tothe direction of the electric fieldwith respect to some plane orboundary towards which the waveis headed
The field orientations can alsochange over time and we get whatare called “circular” and “elliptical”polarizations
75
LinearCircular Elliptical

8/18/2019 Jartel-3 Guided Transmission Media
76/86
Conventional communication optical fiber is cylindrically symmetric butcontains imperfections
Light travelling down such a fiber is changed in polarization
Note: Light that comes from a mixture of all the possible polarizations(generated by, say, a light bulb) is called unpolarized

DispersionDispersion occurs when a pulse of light is spread out duringtransmission on the fiber
◦ A short pulse becomes longer and ultimately joins with the pulse behind,making recovery of a reliable bit stream impossible
There are many kinds of dispersion but the most important three arebelow:
◦ Material dispersion (chromatic dispersion)◦ Modal dispersion◦ Waveguide dispersion

Both lasers and LEDs produce a range ofoptical wavelengths (a band of light) ratherthan a single narrow wavelengthThe fiber has different refractive indexcharacteristics at different wavelengths andtherefore each wavelength will travel at a
different speed in the fiberThus, some wavelengths arrive before othersand a signal pulse disperses (or smears out)
Expressed in picoseconds per kilometer pernanoseconds (ps/km/n)
Maximum information-carrying capacity at1310 nm also known at zero-dispersionwavelength

Modal dispersion
When using multimode fiber,the light is able to take manydifferent paths or “modes” as ittravels within the fiberThe distance traveled by lightin each mode is different fromthe distance travelled in othermodesTherefore, some componentsof the pulse will arrive beforeothersNot issue in single mode fiber

Waveguide dispersionWaveguide dispersion is a very complex effect and is caused by theshape and index profile of the fiber core
However, this can be controlled by careful design and, in fact,waveguide dispersion can be used to counteract material dispersion

NoiseFiber doesn't pick up noise from outside the system
However, there are various kinds of noise that can come fromcomponents within the system itself (we will not cover this, you cantake Optical Communication System course to learn it)

Bandwidth-distance product
Because the effect of dispersion increases with the lengthof the fiber, a fiber Information carrying capacity is oftencharacterized by its bandwidth-distance product, oftenexpressed in units of MHz×km.
This value is a product of bandwidth and distancebecause there is a trade off between the bandwidth ofthe signal and the distance it can be carried
For example, a common multimode fiber with bandwidth-distance product of 500 MHz×km could carry a 500 MHz
signal for 1 km or a 1000 MHz signal for 0.5 km.

RulesKeep all food and beverages out of the work area. If fiber particles are ingested they can causeinternal hemorrhagingWear disposable aprons to minimize fiber particles on your clothing
◦ Fiber particles on your clothing can later get into food, drinks, and/or be ingested by other meansAlways wear safety glasses with side shields and protective glovesTreat fiber optic splinters the same as you would glass splinters.Never look directly into the end of fiber cables until you are positive that there is no lightsource at the other end
◦ Use a fiber optic power meter to make certain the fiber is dark. When using an optical tracer or continuitychecker, look at the fiber from an angle at least 6 inches away from your eye to determine if the visible light ispresent..
Only work in well ventilated areasContact wearers must not handle their lenses until they have thoroughly washed their hands.Do not touch your eyes while working with fiber optic systems until they have beenthoroughly washedKeep all combustible materials safely away from the curing ovens
Put all cut fiber pieces in a safe place.Thoroughly clean your work area when you are doneDo not smoke while working with fiber optic systems.
