In this system pulses have information on both their width and interval between them. Pulse Interval and Width Modulation is characterized by the following compared with Pulse Interval Modulation. First: Pulse repetition frequency is reduced by one half. Second: Duty ratio is 50 % on the average. Third: More power is needed while carrier to noise ratio could be improved instead. The paper shows how it works and comparison with another pulse analog modulation such as Pulse Frequency Modulation or Pulse Interval Modulation. The paper also shows an experiment of twin channel transmission employing two light emitting diodes, two optical fiber transmission lines and two PIN photodiodes as an example of application of Pulse Interval and Width Modulation.","PeriodicalId":100638,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Cable Television","volume":"CATV-3 4","pages":"165-173"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1978-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1109/TCATV.1978.285757","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68072237","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Some of the advantages which optical fibers have over coaxial cables are: wide bandwidth without the need for equalization; freedom from RFI, crosstalk and loop problems; low attenuation; and small size and low weight. In this paper, an analog optical-fiber link was evaluated for the transmission of baseband video signals over a single fiber. It was found that studio-quality signal-to-noise ratios could be obtained for links up to 2.2 km in length if an optical fiber having an attenuation of 5 dB/km were used. Linear video distortion and nonlinear video distortion measurements were made and compared with commercial-network single-hop relay standards. All of the distortion figures were within the standards except for a slightly low chrominance/luminance gain ratio. This distortion could be corrected by modifying the optical receiver electronics. Differential gain and phase distortions were found to increase linearly with the modulation factor of the optical transmitter's light-emitting diode, but were within network standards when the factor was 0.5 or less.","PeriodicalId":100638,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Cable Television","volume":"CATV-3 4","pages":"145-149"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1978-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1109/TCATV.1978.285754","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68072471","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
