Modulator produces different types of shift keying 5.1 Voltage loss
modulated signals (ASK, OOK, FSK, PSK) with carrier
frequency 2.4 kHz (approximately five times the highest Table (1) shows the measured received light voltage for
frequency of the baseband signal). Then modulated signals different modulated signals detected by phototransistor and
are transmitted by the fiber optic transmitter (FOT) and transmitted by different length of glass fibers:
received by the fiber optic receiver (FOR).
FOT has an infrared LED light source with a peak Table 1: Measured received light voltage

rise time (tr) and the following equation approximates the
maximum bandwidth (Bwmax) [6, 7]: Table (2) shows the calculated optical voltage loss in dB/m
for different modulated signals as in equation (5):
