← ScienceWhich effect creates increased bit errors within optical fiber at sharp bends?
A)Modal dispersion reduces signal clarity✓
B)Fresnel reflection increases power loss
C)Raman scattering amplifies noise floor
D) chromatic aberration blurs pulses
💡 Explanation
Modal dispersion increases because sharp bends cause different modes to travel varied path lengths, therefore the different arrival times blur signals rather than Raman scattering, which is a nonlinear effect affecting wavelengths under high intensities.
