Abstract

In this chapter the deployment of plastic optical fibers in short-range (in-building) networks is examined. The application is evaluated in the context of the problem of modeling optical power propagation through the fiber when it is deployed in peculiar environments such as those inside a house. A fast and versatile matrix method is developed to model optical power transmission throughout the fiber. This method is flexible in incorporating the effects of localized disturbances over transmission and compact in facilitating integration in commercial software packages.
