    This document contains 8 practice problems and their answers related to optoelectronics and optical communication. The problems calculate things like power gain of an amplifier based on input and output power, converting decibel milliwatt (dBm) measurements to watts, determining output power of a circuit, critical angle and numerical aperture (NA) of optical fibers based on their core and cladding refractive indices, acceptance angle in different mediums, and estimating NA and critical angle given other fiber parameters. The document is a tutorial for an engineering course on optoelectronics and optical communication systems.
