8.1: Optical Fiber
The total internal reflection criterion imposes a limit on the radius of curvature of fiber optic cable. If fiber optic cable is bent such that the radius of curvature is too small, the critical angle will be exceeded at

Optical fiber
Extrinsic fiber optic sensors use an optical fiber cable, normally a multi-mode one, to transmit modulated light from either a non-fiber optical sensor—or an electronic sensor connected to an optical transmitter.
