Recently, one of remarkable tends in the development of optical communication industry is the miniaturization and integration of products. The alignment system of micro optical module is a key apparatus for the miniaturization of optical module and the development of optical communication parts with high functionality. In this research, we have developed a system capable of automatic alignment of a $30\mu\textrm{m}$-thick film filter and a lensed fiber in order to improve the speed and losses in the optical fiber-to-filter alignment of optical modules. Using the developed automatic alignment system and silicon optical bench, we have measured optical loss and characteristics of the assembled optical add/drop module before packaging $1{\times}1$ OADM optical module. Whole size of add/drop module was less than $5mm{\times}5mm{\times}1mm$. The measured maximum insertion loss was 0.294㏈ that is below 0.3㏈ which is a standard loss of optical module.

Automatic optical alignment modules are a key technology in optical communication system. However, the optic component assembly depends highly on manual or semi-automated alignment process. In this paper, a novel alignment mechanism with minimum degree-of-freedom has been designed and theoretical models are derived from geometric optical characteristics on collimators, optical filters and optical ray alignment. The automatic alignment control algorithm has been newly developed based on the mechanism and models, and then we make fast, precise and reliable alignment through the algorithm. The reliability of developed modules has been verified with various simulations and performance evaluations.

This paper presents a program for the automatic alignment of optical axes and evaluation of the optical filter performance which is a key technologies for the production of optical module. Recently the production of optical filter module mostly depends upon handwork or semi-automation. Moreover, they have used an expensive spectrum analyzer. In this work, we have developed an automatic alignment and evaluation program of optical filter module using photo detector and developed program for automation and cost reduction of the production of optical titter module.

The automatic assembly system of micro optical filter is a key technology in the development of optical modules with high functionality. In order to develop an automatic assembly system of optical fiber and filter, we have firstly developed the system and program capable of characterization of 30${\mu}m$-thick film filters as well as conventional optical filters. Moreover, we have carried out the characterization of optical filter using the developed system and program, and compared experimental results with by conventional handwork. The measurement of optical filters using the present system is faster, more precise and more reliable than those based on the conventional handwork.

본 논문에서는 수 km이하의 이동 기지국에 활용할 수 있는 대기공간 광통신(Free Space Optic) 장치를 제작하고 그 특성을 알아보았다. 대기전송으로 인한 손실을 극복하고자 23dBm 이상의 출력을 갖는 광섬유증폭기(EDFA)를 사용하였다. 레이저 빔의 집속도를 높이고 소형화하기 위하여 광학렌즈를 제작하였으며, 1.5 ~1.8[mrad] 범위내에서 빔 발산각(divergence)을 갖도록 송신렌즈를 설계하였다. 송수신부의 장비간의 효과적인 자동정렬과 포인팅 에러를 줄이기 위하여 PAN/TILT를 제어하는 PT 모듈을 제작하였다. 본 연구에서는 일정한 수준이상으로 전송품질을 유지하기 위하여 Reed-Solomon(RS) 코드를 사용하였다. 가시도 300m의 기후 상황에서 300m 대기공간 거리를 통신이 가능하도록 제작하였다. 성능측정을 위하여 비트에러 측정기와 아이패턴 분석기를 이용하여 측정하였으며 2.5Gbps 이상에서 10^-9 BER을 유지할 수 있음을 확인할 수 있었다.
