Total Internal Reflection

Total Internal Reflection:

In optical fiber the one of the main thing to be understood is the way of occuring the total internal reflection.

Mainly, the total internal reflection is occured when the light passes from rarer medium to
denser medium. It is occured when the incident angle is greater than the critcal angle.When such phenomena is possible then occurence of total internal reflection is possibled.But if the incident angle is less than critical angle in the denser medium then possibility of occuring total internal reflection is far less.

Therefore,to transfer or propagate the data through optical medium total internal reflection plays vital role.
