Paper Abstract
Using fixed power margins in fiber optic system power budget calculations does not adequately account for the nature and complexity of a fiber optic link. In an adverse environment scenerio the power margin must be sufficient to guarantee link operation throughout all expected conditions. A variable margin dependent upon the nature and number of the components in the link provides a more acurate estimate of the margin required for a link than a fixed margin. One particular method of estimating each components portion of the environmental margin is presented.
