Multi-carrier techniques such as OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex) and DMT (Discrete Multitone) are already successfully applied in wireless and DSL (Digital Subscriber Line) systems. To optical communications, this technique is new and not yet studied and. OFDM is a multicarrier modulation technique that divides the available bandwidth into multiple orthogonal subcarriers. Each subcarrier is modulated with a low-rate data stream, and the subcarriers are spaced at a minimum frequency separation that ensures orthogonality.

The interference pattern relative to a reference waveform is an optical intensity value corresponding to the current magnitude. Such sensors are often employed in applications where galvanic isolation is required, as the glass fiber is an excellent electrical insulator.OverviewA current sensor (FOCS) is a device designed to measure. Utilizing a single-ended optical fiber wrapped around the current conductor, FOCS exploits the ( Interferometric fiber optic current sensors (FOCS) employ circularly polarized light traversing a closed loop path around an electrical conductor's current-generated magnetic flux, which reflects off a mirror.
