 Following are the major parameters associated with optical light receivers:-

      1. Minimum threshold optical power, minimum sensitivity 
      2. Responsiveness per wavelength
      3. Wavelength discrimination
      4. Receiver bit rate (max-min) 
      5. Min-max threshold level (one-zero) 
      6. Dependency on one’s density
      7. Dependence on polarisation
      8. Demodulation 
      9. Receiver noise
      10. Dependency on bias
      11. Dependency on temperature
