Fibre-optic communication involves transmitting a signal as light, converting electrical signals to optical signals at the transmitter end and reversing the process at the receiver end. Light acts as a carrier wave and can be modulated to carry information. This occurs when light traveling in a medium with refractive index n₁ strikes the boundary with a medium of lower refractive index n₂ at an. Fiber-optic communication is a form of optical communication for transmitting information from one place to another by sending pulses of infrared or visible light through an optical fiber.
