I'm a layman network tech with no college degree and no grasp of physics beyond very-high level high school science, but I can almost guarantee getting voice audio from a fiber drop on a GPON network where the NID is outside or in the basement, and using the setup in the paper, is currently impossible. The paper you linked seems to require purpose-built hardware on either end of the fiber, and for the transmit strand to reflect into the receive strand, which is not at all how GPON works.
- dustfinger 5y agoThe paper I linked was also from March 1991. I imagine that the technology has changed since then. Here is another article on fiber optic microphones designed for operation in harsh environments [1]. It is from 1999.
