POWER COMMUNICATION USING OPTICAL FIBER

ABSTRACT Power transmission is a very important tool in electrical engineering field. In power transmission it is very necessary to communicate from on location to another. For such communication it is generally desired to have a wired communication but that cost too high and also faces the problem of interference of power frequency of 50Hz /60Hz with communicating frequency of GHz. To win over this problem certain improvement in wired communication or else wireless communication can be chosen but wired communication is given priority over the wireless communication due to economic considerations and the complexity of the wireless communication. Also wireless communication use is prohibited in the radioactive zone of the nuclear plants. Here a brief detail on the power communication using Optical fiber will be presented.
