We have investigated a novel optical decoder for a fiber-optic code division multiple access(CDMA) communication systems. The conventional optical encoder and decoder have the advantage of simple structure. However the number of users in the system is limited by the auto- and cross-correlation properties generated in decoding process. In previous studies, to improve the system performance, although they used an optical code that minimize the sidelobe and cross-correlation, could not yet find a novel methods for performance improvement in fiber-optic CDMA system. Thus, it is necessary to investigate the novel optical decode in order to improve the performance of system. In this paper, we schematize the AND gate logic element(AGLE) composed with 1$\times$2 or 1$\times$3 coupler and the optical thyristor and propose the novel optical decoder using K(weight) AGLE. The optical thyristor only passes the overlapped signal and clips other signals. Such a novel concept means that the optical thyristor can operate as a hard-limiter. We analyze the fiber-optic CDMA system using the novel optical decoder with simulation and is found that the novel optical decoder using the AGLE and optical thyristor excludes the sidelobe and cross-correlation intensity between any two sequences.

In this paper, we consider the scheduling of SE(switching element)-disjoint multicasting in photonic Banyan-type switching networks constructed with directional couplers. This ensures that at most, one connection holds each SE in a given time thus, neither crosstalk nor blocking will arise in the network. Such multicasting usually takes several routing rounds hence, it is desirable to keep the number of rounds(i.e., scheduling length) to a minimum. We first present the necessary and sufficient condition for connections to pass through a common SE(i.e., make crosstalk) in the photonic Banyan-type networks capable of supporting one-to-many connections. With definition of uniquely splitting a multicast connection into distinct subconnections, the crosstalk relationship of a set of connections is represented by a graph model. In order to analyze the worst case crosstalk we characterize the upper bound on the degree of the graph. The successor paper(Part II)[14] is devoted to the scheduling algorithm and the upper bound on the scheduling length. Comparison with related results is made in detail.

As a noninvasive imaging meathod, optical coherence tomography system has been extensively studied because it has some advantage such as imaging of high resolution, low cost, and compace size configuration. The optical power of the sample signal reflected from an object is usually very small in optical coherence tomography(OCT) due to absorption and scattering in a sample material. Furthermore, there happens a serious loss of sample signal power in a fiber coupler because it does not transfer to a photodetector but return to the optical source. In order to improve the SNR of OCT system, basic Michelson and Mach-Zehnder interferometer types were configured then, we compared simulation with measurement of reference sample Therefore, an On in configuration of Math-Zehnder interferometer was demonstrated in order to improve the signal to noise ratio

The low- frequency hydrophone sensor, using the recently developed FBG has an excellent merits which the existing fiber-optic sensor has and also it has an excellent signal sensing effect in the environment of low-frequency(30Hz-300Hz), not to be detected by the PZT sensor. we have the detection of frequency 19KHz right signals when was using more Hopper lenz WDM than $1{\times}3$ optical coupler. furthermore, we can expect the uitilization of low-frequency signal detection to be used for the military purpose and also it can be developed as the high-sensibility multiplexing through the sensor array system.

We developed aerosol flame deposition method and made stress-free Pyrex-based optical waveguide on silicon substrate using this method. Zr is doped to control the refractive index of Pyrex waveguide layers. The refractive index of the film changes from 1.460 to 1.475 as the content of Zr changes from 0 to 3 wt%. Er is doped to see the possibility of applying this Pyrex waveguide as PLC-type (Planar Lightwave Circuit) optical amplifier. The refractive index of the film changes from 1.460 to 1.465 as the content of Zr changes from 0 to 1 wt%. Light launching using a prism coupler to the fabricated waveguide showed good quality for application to PLC. The polarization dependence of refractive-index of the Pyrex film is measured to be less than $2{\times}10^{-4}$.

In this paper, waveguide analysis was interpreted as an optical waveguide using the feedback perturbation method simple and easy to apply compared to the analysis method, while the other almost identical to the numerical calculation method. In addition, efficient coupling with an optical transmission line of optical fiber and the waveguide form the thin film of different functional elements is required in order to achieve the full optical communication system. However, problems arise, such as the light field (field) and the decrease of the access efficiency due to inconsistency in the distribution characteristics of the connection surface by the difference in size of the cross section thereof when connecting the optical fiber and the waveguide directly to the combination of a thin film. Therefore propose a new type of connector structure to increase the efficiency of the connection when connecting the optical fiber waveguide and the thin film was analyzed by applying a coupled mode theory, the binding efficiency of the modified contactor. And by diffusing Ti on the $LiNbO_3$ substrate and a wide range of applications in the manufacture of integrated optical material made of a current low-loss Ti: $LiNbO_3$ optical waveguide and making the Y-branch waveguide, and the properties were confirmed.

In this paper, Passive Temperature Compensation Technology is apply to 8-channel Optical multiplexer with 1000Hz channel spacing. The 8-channel multiplexer is fabricated by connecting three cascaded Mach Zehnder Interferometer(MZI) of optical fiber type, and each interferometer has the wavelength interval of 100GHz, 2000Hz and 4000Hz, respectively. Furthermore, to acquire uniform insertion loss, it is fabricated by using Wavelength Flatten Coupler(WFC) in which the variation of insertion loss is low. $CO_2$ laser to adjust precisely the wavelength. The optical fiber is very sensitive in the thermal variation around. Thus, When fabrication the prototype, it is applied a technique to compensate the optical thermal effect because the center wavelength at the output is shifted according to the thermal variation around. In summary, The prototype composed by eight cascaded MZI has an insertion loss of 5.5 dB, the bandwidth of 0.8nm at 0.5 dB point, and channel crosstalk of 25 dB. Furthermore, the loss dependent on polarization is measured as 0.06dB. Consequently, the output wavelength is shifted within 0.05 m when the surrounding temperature varies until $60^{\circ}C$
