Fiberoptic Data Bus Interface Hardware Realisation

Abstract

Bus interface cirsuit for a fiberoptic data bus differs from a copper wire data bus. While unipolar manchester modulation is used with a fiberoptic data bus, a biphase manchester modulation is used in the copper wire data bus.

This paper suggests a design of a bus interface circuit for any fiberoptic data bus for fly-by-light, stores management, data transmission, etc., compatible with the MIL-STD-1553B. This is applicable for use on board aircraft, ships. tanks, etc.
