摘要：The optical fiber is a very attractive communication medium since it offers a large bandwidth and low attenuation,and can therefore facilitate demanding services such as high-quality video transmission and others in computer networks. Inthis paper, a simulation andbest designof an optical single channel in optical communication is presented. Alsothis papershow how the fiber dispersion, transmitter and receiver response times, type of signal coding, and spectral width of lightsource are affect to the performance of the optical fiber communication such as cable length, data rate,BER.Additionalthispaper show the power and rise time budget is used to obtain a rough estimate of the transmission distance and the bit rate. Thework is achieved using optical system simulator packet (OPTSIM3.6
