Abstract:

A study was conducted to assess the effects of transmitting a precision clock synchronization signal over a commercial multiplexed fiber optic communication system. This study is an evaluation of the distortion and jitter introduced into the signal by this type of transmission system. An analysis comparing signal quality at the multiplexing and demultiplexing ends of the fiber optic communication system shows that the amplitude and phase distortion added to the clock synchronization signal by the transmission system is minimal.
