Heterodyne efficiency is an indicator to evaluate the performance of space coherent laser communication systems. It is affected by signal light and local oscillator (LO) light amplitude, phase and polarization state. In this paper, based on the common heterodyne efficiency, a heterodyne efficiency model that can reflect polarization aberration of optical system is proposed. The heterodyne efficiency is analyzed when the signal light and the LO light are linearly polarized or circularly polarized. For a coherent communication optical system, when the incident signal light is right-circularly polarized light and the incident LO light is 45° linear polarized light. Based on the three-dimensional ray tracing theory and the heterodyne efficiency proposed in this paper, the change of polarization states and the distribution of heterodyne efficiency of the signal light and LO light influenced by the optical system's polarization aberration are analyzed. Analysis shows that the heterodyne efficiency model proposed in this paper can be used to evaluate coherent communication systems and reflect the influence of optical system polarization aberration.

An innovative system for the alternative continuous wide spectral spatial heterodyne spectrometer (ACWS-SHS) is proposed. The relationship between the ACWS-SHS and the wide spectral spatial heterodyne spectrometer (WS-SHS) at the resolution limit, the spectral range, the grating diffraction efficiency and the interference fringes contrast ratio has been analyzed theoretically. Through the comparison of the theoretical analysis and simulation results, it is found that the two systems for the WS-SHS and the ACWS-SHS have the same resolution limit and spectral range, which are ${\delta}{\sigma}$ and ${\sigma}_{01}$, while in the ACWS-SHS system the critical diffraction efficiency of echelle grating is 68.39% and the critical contrast ratio of interference fringes is 0.4135, which is much better than the performance of the WS-SHS system. Therefore, the ACWS-SHS reduces the high requirements for the precision of equipment and expands the application field of SHS effectively.

다채널을 가진 광섬유 센서 시스템을 개발하기 위하여 이것의 기본적인 센서 배열로서 TDM(Time Division Multiplexing) 방식의 2채널 광섬유 센서 배열을 제작하여 그 특성을 실험으로 분석하였다. 2채널 배열의 위상구조는 Mach-Zehnder형 사다리 구조로 제작 되었고 감지 간섭계와 보상 간섭계가 있는 PMDI(Phase-Matched Differential Interferometer) 기법을 사용하여 배열의 신호처리를 용이하게 하였다. 신호처리는 합성 헤테로다인(Synthetic Heterodyne)을 이용한 신호처리 기법으로 2채널의 신호를 동시에 검출하였다. 실험 결과 각 채널의 감도는 센서 #1에서 ${\sim}60{\mu}rad/\sqrt{Hz}$ 센서#2에서 ${\sim}80{\mu}rad/\sqrt{Hz}$를 얻었으며, 상호 간섭량(crosstalk)은 -36dB로 측정되었다. 본 실험으로 TDM 방식으로 다중화 된 Mach-Zehnder형 사다리 구조 간섭계의 신호처리가 광섬유센서의 효율을 높이고 비교적 안정적으로 신호를 감지함을 확인하였다.

This paper presents a phase-only modulation scheme for a three-dimensional (3-D) image matching system to improve optical efficiency of the system. The 3-D image matching system is based on the two mask heterodyne scanning. A hologram of the 3-D reference object is first created and then the phase of the hologram is extracted. The phase of the hologram is represented as one mask with the other mask being a plane wave. The superposition of each beam modulated by the two masks generated a scanning beam pattern. This beam pattern scans the 3-D target object to be recognized. The output of the scanning system gives out the correlation of the phase-only hologram of the reference object and the complex hologram of the target object. Since a hologram contains 3-D information of an object as a form of fringe pattern, the correlation of holograms matches whole 3-D aspect of the objects. Computer simulations are performed with additive gaussian noise and without noise for the complex hologram modulation scheme and the phase-only hologram modulation scheme. The computer simulation results show that the phase-only hologram modulation scheme improves the optical efficiency. Thus the system with the phase-only hologram modulation scheme is more robust than the system with the complex hologram modulation scheme.
