Optical Pulse Duration
The Optical Pulse Duration refers to the transient or short-duration burst of light that carries information in the form of optical signals.
Symbol: σλ
Measurement: TimeUnit: s
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Length of Fiber
Length of Fiber is defined as the total length of fiber cable.
Symbol: L
Measurement: LengthUnit: m
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Optical Fiber Dispersion
Optical Fiber Dispersion refers to the phenomenon where different wavelengths of light propagate at different velocities, causing the pulse to spread and distort during transmission through the fiber.

How to Evaluate Gaussian Pulse?

Gaussian Pulse evaluator uses Gaussian Pulse = Optical Pulse Duration/(Length of Fiber*Optical Fiber Dispersion) to evaluate the Gaussian Pulse, The Gaussian Pulse formula refers to a specific type of optical signal that is characterized by a Gaussian-shaped intensity profile in the time domain. It is commonly used to represent the temporal behavior of optical pulses in fiber optic communication systems. A Gaussian pulse in fiber optics is typically generated by modulating a continuous-wave (CW) laser source using an intensity modulator or by using mode-locked lasers. The resulting pulse has a Gaussian envelope, meaning the intensity of the pulse follows a Gaussian distribution over time. Gaussian Pulse is denoted by σg symbol.
