Design procedures of high speed low loss fiberoptic linksLosses in short-haul broadband fiber-optic links are primarily due to many characteristics of electrooptic devices. In particular, electrical mismatch at the electrical/optical interfaces have been the dominant source of loss. Losses can be significantly reduced and link performance enhanced by reactive matching of the laser and detector modules. The steps in the design of low-loss fiber-optic links are presented, which are on the basis of (1) two-tier deembedding of laser and photodiodes from test fixtures and (2) reactively matching them to a standard 50-ohm system. These concepts are demonstrated by design of a link operating at 0.5 to 1 GHz using reactively matched optical transmitter and receiver modules.
