Question:
The attenuation in optical fibre is mainly due to
The attenuation in optical fibre is mainly due to
Updated On: Apr 15, 2024
- absorption
- scattering
- neither absorption nor scattering
- Both (a) and (b)
Show Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
A very small part of light energy is lost from an optical fibre due to absorption or due to light leaving the fibre area resulting scattering of light sideways by impurities in the glass fibre.
