Abstract :
A description is given of the digital fiber optic network synthesis program, or FONS, a computational aid for fiber optic designers to use in the development of networks that conform to given system performance specifications. The role that FONS plays is examined. Three application examples are given. Examination of the numerical results shows close agreement with manual power and bandwidth budget calculations using the same set of input parameters.<>
