This paper demonstrates a successful application of wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) to the avionics environment to support analog RF signal transmission. We investigate the simultaneous transmission of four RF signals (channels) over a single optical fiber. These four analog channels are sequentially multiplexed and demultiplexed at different points along a fiber optic backbone to more closely emulate the conditions found onboard aircraft. We present data from measurements of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), transmission response (loss and gain), group delay that defines phase distortion, and dynamic range that defines nonlinear distortion. The data indicate that WDM is well-suited for avionics applications. Ngo, Duc and Nguyen, Hung and Atiquzzaman, Mohammed and Sluss, James J., Jr. and Refai, Hakki H.

This is the first book in our country describing the utilization of fiber optics technology in aviation. As of today, almost all new generation aircraft are installed with some fiber optics systems and/or fiber optics sensors. This book gives all the latest advances taking place in aviation as far as fiber optics technology is concerned. Especially with This book titled “Fiber Optics & Aviation: Integration” (SECOND EDITION), the concept of maintenance of all aircraft in India will have to be upgraded and changed as discussed in the book, and also this book gives comprehensive coverage of the topics covered in the book. As of today, no IIT, university/engineering college of aviation branch (Aeronautical Engineering) syllabus has this latest technology included in their subject, hence this is the right time to include this subject as a compulsory subject for students so that they are fully aware of this new technology incorporated in all new-generation aircraft. The same recommendation is also given by the Institution of Engineers (India) in their IEI Epitome April 2022 on Page Number 3 for the first edition of the book. practitioners and Students may use this book “Fiber Optics & Aviation: Integration” (SECOND EDITION) as a postscript to my earlier written book “Fiber Optics Fundamentals and Advances in Optical Communications” for better and intended understanding.
