The Influence of Lateral Displacement on Fiber Splicing and the New Conical Fiber Connector
In order to improve the coupling efficiency of fiber splicing in vibration environments,the mechanism of the impact of lateral displacement on the coupling efficiency is analyzed.Then,a new method is proposed to improve the coupling efficiency.That is using a directional tapered fiber connector to do the work.Compared with the traditional connectors,the new connector expands the receiving ar-ea and thus improving the receiving performance.In the next step,a sample is made to do the experiment.In the experimental section,the coupling efficiency experiment and bit error rate experiment are conducted in a micro vibration environment.Both experimental re-sults show that the new tapered fiber optic connector performs better in a micro vibration environment.
