Interaction between Electromagnetic Field and Optical Signal Transmission in Fiber Optics

The area of electromagnetic (EM) field influence to FOTS has not been widely studied. Main reason is that for data transmission speeds used in optical fibers nowdays there are no indication of EM influence. But we propose that EM interference with optical radiation could become a limiting factor for much higher data transmission speeds. Therefore the aim of this research is to evaluate external EM field influence to fiber optics WDM transmission system with standard data transmission speed per channel 10.52, 12.5 and 40.0 Gbps and two different modulation formats: amplitude and polarization state modulation.
