  • Abstract
    A real-time control procedure has been developed for controlling arc fusion splicing of optical fibers. This procedure is applied during the fusion in order to optimize the fusion parameters for different types of optical fibers under different electrode conditions. The procedure has been implemented in a fusion splicer. Consistent splice losses have been achieved for different fibers under different fusion environment
