Because of the complexity of the observation of the eavesdropping process in optical fiber link, a new technique is suggested. A WDM is utilized as a part of optical fiber intrusion detection system. The implemented setup is capable to observe eavesdropping soon. The PC unit supports the system and it offers a suitable tool to observe or detect the leakage information. The minimum detectable attenuation value due to the intrusion is about (0.04 dB) while the optical power leakage is about 0.1 dB.

Abstract


Because of the complexity of the observation of the eavesdropping process in optical fiber link, a new technique is suggested. A WDM is utilized as a part of optical fiber intrusion detection system. The implemented setup is capable to observe eavesdropping soon. The PC unit supports the system and it offers a suitable tool to observe or detect the leakage information. The minimum detectable attenuation value due to the intrusion is about (0.04 dB) while the optical power leakage is about 0.1 dB.
