    considering the demerits of optical fiber networks. Despite of the fact that the cost for fiber is dropping by 60% per year and is beneficial in long run, its initial installation cost is still high and is not affordable to all vendors. Per unit cost of fiber cable is more than that of copper cable. Secondly, as the technology is still new and improvising, it requires skilled manpower for its installation, operation and maintenance. Further it requires new equipment compared to prevalent…

    The limitations of copper and coaxial cable cannot keep up with the ever-increasing demands of distance, bandwidth, and real estate. The potential bandwidth of fiber has not been fully utilized and it is already transmitting signals at multiple gigabits per second. Fiber optic cables can go an average of 62 miles versus 1.2 miles that copper can go before the signal needs to be regenerated or boosted. Overall, it is apparent that fiber optics is a more cost effective solution. Fiber optics is…

    of optical fiber sensor in biomedical Optical fiber sensor for biomedical application Applications for biomedical sensors can be named in vivo or in vitro. In vivo alludes to application on an entire, living life form, for example, a human patient; in vitro alludes to testing outside the body, for example, research facility blood tests. From the point of view of how sensors are connected to a patient or organic framework, they can be named noninvasive, reaching (skin surface), negligibly…

    Design of the modified optical sensor used with Equations 1 and 21. The power to integrate an optic fiber into fabrics was measured to determine whether the optic fibers broke during the integration process. Equation 3 was used for the power calculation in decibel-milliwatts (dBm) 1. dBm=10 log(P_transmitted/(1 mW)) [3] Integration of the fibers into fabric has been successful. The diameter of the fiber that has been developed is 1 millimeter thick. One challenge is to minimize the size…

    using light (Mercer, 2017) It functions by using common Light Emitting Diodes (LED) to facilitate data transfer at speeds up to 224 gigabits per second (Mercer, 2017). Li-Fi proposes a world where common sources of light are able to connect us to the internet. The term Li-Fi was invented by Harold Haas, a University of Edinburgh Professor in 2011. He foresees light bulbs acting as wireless routers and later went on to set up a company, pureLiFi with the goal of becoming an authority in VLC…

    Using this approach, we will confine P. aeruginosa bacteria tagged with mCherry, a fluorescent-protein-based reported, within 3D microstructures on the optical fiber tip. We will then expose the bacterial structure with an excitation source to create excited states promoting fluorescence, which we will detect using a photomultiplier tube (PMT). The fluorescence is an expression of mCherry, which gets activated when cells respond to several environmental factors like QS signals or oxygen levels…
