  • Abstract
    The characteristics and limits of parallel transmission of two-dimensional imagery through single optical fibers are reviewed, and methods for overcoming the inherent smearing that occurs at the output are discussed. These solutions include: a) control of the fiber´s refractive index profile; b) incorporation of complex filters; and c) encoding the information at the input and decoding the output after transmission.
