Among many fiber optic sensors, FBG sensors are being studied more actively than any other sensor due to good multiplexing capabilities. Recently, the application fields of FBG sensors are mainly focused on the composite materials through embedding rather than attaching on the surface. However, there are many limitations on the embedding FBG sensors into composite materials because of the birefringence effects which is induced when FBG sensors are not embedded parallel to the reinforcing fiber. In this study, the fabrication method of FBG sensors with various grating length that are easy to fabricate with good multiplexing capabilities and more stable from the birefringence effects are investigated. The signal characteristics of the FBG sensors are also verified through the cure monitoring of 2 kinds of composite materials.

We proposed and demonstrated a tunable wavelength optical add/drop multiplexer(OADM) employing piezoactuated fiber grating pairs and polarization beam splitters. We used piezostack act as a fiber stretcher, using the fact that the resonant wavelength of the grating can be controlled by the axial strain along the fiber grating. The polarization controlled configuration showed high stability because the reflected signals from the two identical gratings are dropped or added not by interference but by polarizations of the beams. We could add and drop not noly 1549.3nm signal channel(original gratings), but also 1550.1nm(tuned gratings) with PZT actuators and in both cases, we found that the rejection of adjacent channels was more than -26dB, and signal leakage at the gratings was less than -34dB.

최근 광섬유의 전송 용량을 효율적으로 극대화하기 위한 방안으로서 파장 분할 다중화 (WDM: Wavelength Division Multiplexing) 방식의 광통신 시스템이 제안되어 사용되고 있다. WDM 시스템에서는 각 채널 (channel) 마다 각기 다른 파장의 광신호가 할당되어 있기 때문에, 여러 파장이 다중화된 광신호에서 원하는 파장의 광신호를 선택하기 위해서는 파장 선택 필터 (wavelength selective filter) 가 필요하다. 격자 보조 동방향 결합기 (GACC: Grating-Assisted Codirectional Coupler) 는 전파 상수(propagation constant) 가 서로 다른 두 도파로 사이에서의 광파워 교환이 파장에 의존하는 특성을 가지고 있기 때문에 WDM 시스템에 응용될 파장 선택 필터로서 많은 연구가 되어 왔다$^{(1),(2)}$ .

파장분할다중 방식에서 필요로 하는 격자들 간의 격자주기 차이는 1nm이하를 요구한다. 따라서, 하나의 위상형 마스크로 서로 다른 주기의 격자를 동시에 제작하려면 하나의 위상형 마스크 패턴들 간에도 nm 정도의 차이를 갖는 미세한 패턴이 있어야 한다. 그러나, 일반적으로 마스크를 제작하는데 이용되는 장비인 전자빔 묘화장치(electron-beam lithographic system)의 분해능은 수십 nm이므로, 그러한 nm 정도의 정확도로서 조합된 마스크 패턴들을 만드는 것은 매우 어렵다. (중략)

광섬유 브래그 격자(Fiber Bragg Grating, FBG)는 좁은 선폭과 적은 삽입손실 등의 뛰어난 스펙트럼 특성을 가지고 있어, 고밀도 파장분할 다중화 방식을 이용한 광통신 시스템과 여러 종류의 광섬유센서에 응용되고 있다. 브래그 격자의 광학적 스펙트럼을 능동적으로 조절하기 위하여, 광섬유에 열이나 스트레인을 인가하거나, 음파와 빛의 결합을 이용한 방법이 제안되었으며, 특히 음향 광학 브래그 격자 변조기(Acousto-Optic Superlattice Modulator)는 종 방향 음파(Longitudinal Acoustic Wave)를 이용하여 파장과 크기의 조절이 가능한 사이드 밴드(Side Band)를 생성해 내었다.

We investigate lattice-reduction-aided precoding techniques for multi-user multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) channels. When assuming full knowledge of the channel state information only at the transmitter, a vector perturbation (VP) is a promising precoding scheme that approaches sum capacity and has simple receiver. However, its encoding is nondeterministic polynomial time (NP)-hard problem. Vector perturbation using lattice reduction algorithms can remarkably reduce its encoding complexity. In this paper, we propose a vector perturbation scheme using Seysen's lattice reduction (VP-SLR) with simultaneously reducing primal basis and dual one. Simulation results show that the proposed VP-SLR has better bit error rate (BER) and larger capacity than vector perturbation with Lenstra-Lenstra-Lovasz lattice reduction (VP-LLL) in addition to less encoding complexity.

We present various optimal grating structures which give the low threshold gain, good modulation characteristics, small effective linewidth enhancement factor, and large fabrication tolerance in complex-coupled MQW DFB lasers with absorptive gratings. To obtain these, we calculate the complex coupling coefficients using the extended additional layer method and the threshold gain including the modal loss in the absorptive grating region for rectangular and trapezoidal gratings. Based on the comparison of the results for various possible absorptive grating structures, the design guidelines are presented to obtain the low threshold gain or large fabrication tolerance. Among the grating structures studied, the double grating structure consisting of the absorptive grating on the index grating has the largest fabrication tolerance for the threshold gain and the coupling strength. The fabrication tolerance for the coupling ratio is very large for all the grating structures studied.

In general, contours in digital vector maps, which represent terrain characteristics and shape, are created by 3D digitizing the same height points using aerial photographs on the analytical or digital plotters with stereoscopic viewing. Hence, it requires lots of task, and subjective decision and experience of the operators. DTMs are generated indirectly by using contours since the national digital maps do not include digital terrain model (DTM) data. In this study, model key points which depict the important information about terrain characteristics were extracted from the contours. Further, determination of the efficient and flexible grid sizes were proposed to generate optimal DTM in terms of both quantitative and qualitative aspects. For this purpose, a progressive sampling technique was implemented, i.e., the smaller grid sizes are assigned for the mountainous areas where have large relief while the larger grid sizes are assigned for the relatively flat areas. In consequence, DTMs with multi-grid for difference areas could be generated instead of DTMs with a fixed grid size. The multi-grid DTMs reduce computations for data processing and provide fast display.
