Abstract

The testing and design considerations for direct detector fiber optic receivers of high sensitivity, can have a significant effect on the reliability and performance of these sub-systems. This paper includes a discussion of receiver state-of-the-art performance, component and design criteria, testing procedures and testing results of recently demonstrated, high sensitivity receivers.
