Abstract

A Gb/s fiber optic link with built-in test capability (BIT) basing on vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL) sources for military avionics bus for next generation has been presented in this paper. To accurately predict link performance, statistical methods and Bit Error Rate (BER) measurements have been examined. The results show that the 1Gb/s fiber optic link meets the BER requirement and values for link margin can reach up to 13dB. Analysis shows that the suggested photonic network may provide high performance and low cost interconnections alternative for future military avionics.
