In order to monitor the impact locations in smart structures, multipoint ultrasonic sensors are to be employed. In this study, a multiplexing demodulator with wide dynamic range was proposed to detect the impact locations using FBG sensors, and a stabilization controlling system was also developed for the maintenance of maximum sensitivity of sensors. Two FBG sensors were attached on the bottom side of the aluminum beam specimen and low velocity impact tests were performed to detect the one-dimensional impact locations. As a result, multiplexed in-line FBG sensors could detect the moment of impact precisely, and found the impact locations with the average location error below 0.58mm.

Over the past decade, the improvement of communications technologies and the rapid spread of www (World Wide Web) have brought on the exponential growth of users using Internet and real time multimedia multicast services like video conferencing, tele-immersive virtual reality, and Internet games. The dense-wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) networks have been widely accepted as a promising approach to meet the ever-increasing bandwidth demands of Internet users, especially in next generation Internet backbone networks for nation-wide or global coverage. A major challenge in the next generation Internet backbone networks based on DWDM technologies is the resolution of the multicasting RWA (Routing and Wavelength Assignment) problem; given a set of wavelengths in the DWDM network, we set up light-paths by routing and assigning a wavelength for each connection so that the multicast connections are set-upped as many as possible. Finding such optimal multicast connections has been proven to be Non-deterministic Polynomial-time-complete. In this paper, we suggest a new heuristic multicast routing and wavelength assignment method for multicast sessions called DVS-PMIPMR (Differentiated Virtual Source-based Priority Minimum Interference Path Multicast Routing algorithm). We measured the performance of the proposed algorithm in terms of number of wavelength and wavelength channel. The simulation results demonstrate that DVS-PMIPMR algorithm is superior to previous multicast routing algorithms.

We propose a novel structure of wavelength selective optical add/drop filter comprising two tap couplers and a fiber Bragg grating. The device has unique features including a simpler structure and a lower cost implementation as compared with existing device for the same operation. The filter performance has been measured and analyzed, experimentally. The implemented prototype filter shows good performance with no­crosstalk power penalty in a 155Mbps per channel wavelength­division­multiplexing transmission system but suffers from a relatively high loss of 3.5㏈ and 21㏈ for transmitted and dropped channel, respectively. While the dropped channel extinction ratio was more than 15㏈, the transmitted channel extinction ratio was more than 26㏈.

1960년대에 발명된 광섬유를 이용한 광통신기술은 1980년대 이래 빠르게 보급되었다. 특히 인터넷 트래픽이 폭발적으로 증가하기 시작한 1990년대 후반에 파장 분할 다중화(WDM) 기술이 상용화 되었으며 이 기술은 불과 수년 사이에 하나의 물리적인 광섬유 한 가닥을 통해 독립적인 수백 채널의 신호를 전송할 수 있는 수준에 이르렀다. 이에 더하여 ETDM 기술의 발전으로 채널 당 10Gbps 내지 40Gbps에 이르는 신호를 전송할 수 있게 되어 광섬유 선로 당 전송 용량은 테라급이 가능해졌다. 전송 용량의 빠른 확장과 과장된 수요 예측은 결국 공급 과잉을 초래하여 최근 수 년간 광전송 분야 시장이 침체된바 있다. 그러나 매년 약 두 배씩 꾸준히 증가하는 트래픽 덕에 최근에는 과잉 공급 분이 소진되어 가고 있으며 새로 시장이 활성화되고 있다. 새 시장에서는 종래의 점대점 방식을 넘어 메시형의 WDM 광 네트워크가 등장할 것이며 이에 따른 다양한 요소 기술을 요구하게 될 것이다. 본 고에서는 광전송 기술의 핵심 분야인 광 트랜스폰더 기술, 광 증폭기 기술, 그리고 광 네트워크 기술을 중심으로 현황과 발전전망을 알아본다.

In the present paper routing and wavelength assignment (RWA) in optical WDM networks is considered. Previous techniques based on the combination of integer linear programming and graph coloring are complex and require extensive use of heuristics. Such methods are mostly slow and sometimes impossible to get results due to infeasibility. An alternative approach applied to RWA employs on the greedy algorithm for obtaining the maximum edge disjoint paths. Even though this approach is fast, it produces a solution for any connection request, which is very far from the optimal utilization of wavelengths. We propose a novel algorithm, which is based on the maximum flow technique to obtain the maximum quantity of edge, disjoint paths. Here we compare the offered method with previous maximum edge disjoint paths algorithms ap plied to the RWA.

An Optical Network-on-Chip(ONoC) based on silicon photonics is one of promising technology for next generation exascale computing architectures. Recent active researches on ONoC focus on improving bandwidth further and avoiding path collisions by using wavelength division multiplexing (WDM). However, the number of wavelengths used for the WDM increases linearly as the number of Processing Element (PE) increases in existing ONoCs which adopt centralized routing architecture. The problem will also arises growing cost of optical devices such as light switches and light sources and limits the scalability of ONoC due to the sinal loss caused by interference of distinct light sources. In this paper, we proposes a distributed routing architecture for ONoC which is based on 2D-mesh structure using WDM technique and present a method that minimize the required number of wavelengths exploiting the connectivity of communication. In comparison with existing centralized routing architectures, results show reduction by 56% of the number of wavelengths and 21% of the number of optical switches in $8{\times}8$ networks.

In a multi-channel network based on wavelength division multiplexing (WDM), an efficient protocol is needed for transmitter and receiver to be tuned to same wavelength during message transmission time. This paper proposes a message scheduling protocol that can efficiently support variable-sized messages, where tunable transceiver has nonzero tuning time. In this protocol, once a node reserves one data channel, it can persistently use the reserved channel till message transmission is finished. Therefore, overhead due to tuning time of the tunable transceiver can be reduced. Moreover, the protocol does not require any global information. Therefore, it can operate independently of the change of the number of nodes, and any new node can join the network at anytime without requiring network initialization. With this protocol, one can avoid data channel and destination conflicts. The protocol is analyzed with a finite population model and the throughput-delay characteristics are investigated as performance measures.

In a multi-channel network based of wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) technology, an efficient protocol is needed in order for the transmitter and receiver to be tuned to the same wavelength during message transmission time. This paper proposes a priority-based reservation protocol that can efficiently support variable-length messages that require different QoS requirements. In this proposed protocol, high-priority nodes can reserve the data channel before low-priority nodes. However, once a node reserves a data channel successfully, it can persistently use the reserved channel till message transmission is finished regardless of the priority of the node. Moreover, the protocol can operate independently of the number of nodes, and any new node can join the network anytime without requiring network re-initialization. The protocol is analyzed with a finite population model and the throughput-delay characteristics are investigated as performance measures.

The configuration of dispersion-managed optical link with optical phase conjugator, which is placed at the non-midway of total transmission length, is proposed for implementing of the flexible optical network. The optical phase conjugator is located between the former half transmission section and the latter half transmission section, which are consisted of 6 fiber spans and 14 fiber spans respectively, and the averaged RDPS of each half transmission section are inconsistence. And, the artificial distribution of each fiber span's RDPS, which are gradually increased/decreased as the span numbers are increased, is adopted to compensate for the distorted wavelength division multiplexed channels. From the simulation results, it is confirmed that the compensation in dispersion-managed link configured by a special distribution pattern among 16 proposed patterns, in which the RDPS of each fiber spans are gradually decreased/increased in the former/latter half section with the small deviation, is suitable to compensate for the distorted wavelength division multiplexed channels.
