In this paper the effect of instability and chaos in optical fiber networks based on the Internet is described. Nonlinear optical fiber effect especially Brillouin scattering in networks has emerged as the essential means for the construction of active optical devices used for all-optic in-line switching, channel selection, amplification, oscillation in optical communications and a host of other applications. The inherent optical feedback by the back-scattered Stokes wave in optical networks also leads to instabilities in the form of optical chaos. This paradigm of optical chaos in fiber Internet serves as a test for fundamental study of chaos and its suppression and exploitation in practical application in optical fiber communication. This paper attempts to present a survey and some of our research findings on the nature of Brillouin chaotic effect on Internet based optical communication.

In this paper the neuron operation based on Brillouin-active fiber in optical fiber is described. The inherent optical feedback by the backscattered stokes wave in optical fiber leads to instabilities in the form of optical chaos. Controlling of chaos induced transient instability in Brillouin-active fiber is implemented with Kerr nonlinearity having a non-instantaneous response in network systems. The controlling chaotic instabilities can lead to multistable periodic states; create optical logic 'on' or high level '1' or 'off', or low level '0'. It is theoretically possible to apply the multi-stability regimes as an optical memory device for encoding and decoding series and complex data transmission in optical systems.

We have developed a practical Brillouin active fiber ring sensor of length less than 20m, by employing an optical amplifier to compensate for most of the connection losses in the ring. The loss reduction brings the standard Brillouin threshold from 21 down to 0-0.1 through the enhancement of the finesse of the ring. However, in the course of our experiments, some level of temporal instability and chaotic behavior in the backscattered Stokes intensity and also in its spectral line shift were consistently observed.

In this present the transient control of SBS chaos induced instability in Brillouin-active fiber systems is described. The inherent optical feedback by the backscattered Stokes wave in optical fiber systems leads to instabilities in the form of optical chaos. At weak power, the nature of the Brillouin instability can occur at before threshold. At strong power, the temporal evolution above threshold is periodic and at higher intensity can become chaotic. Multistable periodic states, makes transition to logic 'on' or 'off'. It can make theoretically potential large memory capacity.

최근 광통신 시스템에서는 파장분할다중화(WDM) 방식의 도입으로 인해, 한 개의 레이저 신호를 입사시켜 여러 개의 레이저 신호를 발생시켜 광원으로 사용하는 연구가 활발히 진행되어 왔다. Park et al.[1]은 Erbium Doped Fiber Laser(EDFL)에서 1.1nm 파장간격으로 24라인을 얻었고, Yamashita et al.[2]은 내부 에탈론 구조를 가진 EDFL에서 0.8nm 간격으로 17라인, D.Yu et al.[3]은 반사형 거울과 Circulator를 사용한 Brillouin/Erbium Fiber Laser(BEFL)에서 0.08nm 간격으로 30라인, G.J.Cowle et al.[4]은 Injection-Seed Locking을 이용한 BEFL.에서 0.09nm 간격으로 12라인 그리고 N.S.Kim et al.[5]은 내부 되먹임을 이용한 BEFL에서 0.09nm 간격으로 4라인을 각각 발생시켰다. 여기서 중요한 요소로는 발생된 레이저 신호의 안정성, 각 신호들 간의 파장간격, 레이저 신호의 수 그리고 Peak Intensity 간의 차이 등이 있는데 각 연구방식에 따라 다양한 결과를 보여준다. 본 실험에서는 향상된 되먹임 구조를 가진 BEFL에서 다파장 발생에 관한 연구를 하였다.
