% This matlab code analyses the losses in optical fibers for telecom networks

% This analysis is done on two types of optical fibers, the Corning SMF-28
% Optical Fiber and the AllWave Zero Water Peak (ZWP) Fiber. The steps in
% this analysis are the following : Determination of the length of the
% fiber, determination of the deadzoness and the attenuation at the
% wavelengh of 1310 nm and 1550 nm.
