In this study, we studied the gamma-radiation effect of fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) on the high temperature annealing condition after grating inscription using a KrF UV laser (248 nm). The FBGs were fabricated in a different annealing temperature using the same commercial Ge-doped silica core fiber (SMF-28e) and exposed to gamma-radiation up to a dose of 31 kGy at the dose rate of 115 Gy/min. The high temperature annealing procedure for grating stabilization was applied to change the radiation sensitivity of the FBGs. According to the experimental data and analysis results, the gratings that were stabilized at different temperatures at 100, 150 and $200^{\circ}C$ have clearly shown that exposure to higher temperatures increases their radiation sensitivity. The radiation-induced Bragg wavelength shift (BWS) was shown a difference of up to about a factor of two depending on the annealing temperature conditions of the gratings.

Fiber-optic sensor (FOS) using bending-sensitive fiber (BSF which detects physical variables according to the variation of fiber-bending is proposed. BSF is already used in variable optical attenuator. Three-dimensional finite difference beam propagation method (3D FD-BPM) is used to investigate the bending loss of BSF. Then, the results of bending experiment with FOS consisting of BSF is compared to numerical results of 3D FD-BPM. In particular, the optical power of fabricated FOS with BSF varies from -ldB to -2OdB when pressure given to the upper side of FOS changes from 0 MPa to 0.005 MPa, while the FOS consists of SMF shows no change of optical power at the same condition.

The perimeter defense system was created and its characteristics were evaluated. It was designed to utilize the fiber sensing device, namely OTDR(Optical Time Domain Reflectometer) which has been used for the maintenance of the optical communication network. An OTDR was constituted by a pulse laser with the nature of 1310nm, +15dBm for the observation of 400 meter optical fence. The high-speed 32-bit processor(S3C2440) has applied to MPU(Main Processor Unit) which helps to improve the performance of OTDR algorithms. Consequently, the maximum error was 0.84 meter on the performance test of the 10km monitoring and the pass criteria of ${\pm}1m$ satisfied in all the sections. The alarm delay time was under 3 sec after detecting the disorder. For the case of secondary trespassing after primary trespassing, the optical switch was installed in OTDR to monitor the secondary trespassing and to measure the multi-point detection. Therefore, this paper shows that the detections of secondary trespassing and multi-point is possible by means of optical switch.

As an astonishing progress of FTTH infrastructure, the new technologies have been widely studied to use the tantalizing benefits of high bandwidth in fiber optic cable. In this paper, a new VONU is presented to perform all necessary optical functions. It can converts digital and analog CATV signals and satellite-based signal transmitted via one fiber optic cable to electrical signals (electric lights). However, most previous VONU systems have the problems such as interference between difference services, signal distortion, and noise increasing rate. These problems cause the quality deterioration in broadcasting. Therefore, we suggest the new VONU system to solve all problems listed above. In addition, we show that how our system performs well by measuring the real data with implemented system.

After the light from an incoherent LED was transmitted through the multimode fibers which were linked over 10 km, the nearfield power distribution reached the steady-state independent of launching conditions. It has been also found that the steady-state output power distribution showed the pattern of Gaussian function. In this steady-state Gaussian function pattern, the measured losses of fibers were very repeatable values. In case of using LD source, the speckle phenomena in near -field power distribution appeared until the distance of 10 km. And the output power distribution did not reach the steady-state shown in LED even over 20km on account of the coherence and the nonuniform lasing modes of LD. But the measured losses of fibers were nearly stable in this long distance.

We have constructed and characterized a depolarized fiber-optic gyroscope that uses a length of single-mode fiber as a sensing loop fiber. We have also calculated the noise characteristics of the gyroscope and have found an optimum phase modulation depth that gives the highest signal-to-noise ratio in the gyroscope. The random walk coefficient as small as 0.7$\times$10$^{-3}$ deg/√hr was obtained at the modulation depth of around 2.4 rad. The random walk coefficients measured at various modulation depths were found to be in reasonable agreement with the calculation.

본 연구는 VGGNet을 사용하여 광섬유 복합가공 지선 설비의 양/불량 판별을 수행한다. 광섬유 복합가공 지선이란, 전력선의 보호 및 전력 시설 간 통신을 담당하는 중요 설비로 고장 발생 전, 결함의 조기 발견 및 유지 관리가 중요하다. 현재 한국전력공사에서는 드론에서 촬영된 영상을 점검원이 이상 여부를 점검하는 방식이 주로 사용되고 있으나 이는 점검원의 숙련도, 경험에 따른 정확성 및 비용과 시간 측면에서 한계를 지니고 있다. 본 연구는 드론에서 촬영된 영상으로 VGGNet 기반의 양/불량 판정을 수행했다. 그 결과, 정확도 약 95.15%, 정밀도 약 96%, 재현율 약 95%, f1 score 약 95%의 성능을 확인하였다. 결과 확인 방법으로는 설명 가능한 인공지능(XAI) 알고리즘 중 하나인 Grad-CAM을 적용하였다. 이러한 광섬유 복합가공 지선 설비의 양/불량 판별은 점검원의 단순 작업에 대한 비용 및 점검 시간을 줄이며, 부가가치가 높은 업무에 집중할 수 있게 해준다. 또한, 고장 결함 발견에 있어서 객관적인 점검을 수행하기 때문에 일정한 점검 품질을 유지한다는 점에서 적용 가치가 있다.

광 커플러는 광섬유로부터 광신호를 분기하거나 결합하는 광통신망의 가장 기초적인 부품으로 광통신망에서 다양한 기능을 수행하고 있다[1]. 따라서 광 커플러는 광통신망의 구성에 있어서 가장 중요한 부품의 하나이며, 특히 광가입자망의 구현에 따라 그 수요가 크게 증가될 전망이다. 현재 가장 일반적인 광 커플러는 Evanescent 광 결합원리를 이용하는 광섬유형 근접 커플러이며, 그 이외에도 각종 평면도파로를 이용한 도파로형 커플러가 제품의 소형화 및 양산성이 우수하여 많은 연구개발이 진행되고 있다. 본고에서는 현재까지의 각종 광 커플러의 기술 및 시장 현황을 통신용 단일모드 광 커플러를 중심으로 고찰하고 앞으로의 광 커플러 개발 방향을 제시하고자 한다.

최근 인터넷의 급속한 확산과 정보화 사회의 출현으로 정보통신 수요가 급격히 증가하게 되었으며, 이에 따라 대부분의 유선통신 방식이 광통신 방식으로 대체되고 있다. 또한 조만간 가정이나 사무실에까지 광섬유가 설치되어 초고속 대용량 정보 전달이 광에 의해 수행될 전망이다. 정보 전달이 광에 전적으로 의존함에 따라 정보 생성, 정보처리 및 가공, 정보 분배, 정보 저장까지도 광으로 처리하려는 개념은 자연스러운 발상이며, 이를 실현하려는 노력은 당연한 것이라 생각한다.(중략)
