A long-wavelength ($1. 3\mum$) multimode fiber-optic transmission system has been developed and the field trial system has been installed over 17.3km distance in Daejeon Area by KETRI. The 45Mb/s and 90Mb/s system operate with BER $10^-9$over 17.3km distance, and they successfully operate on the route of 34. 6km length when the fiber cable is simply connected at one end. Average loss of the fiber cable shows 0. 81dB/km including splice loss and the average bandwidth over the 17. 3km distance is 170MHz.

As silica based optical fibers and preforms are processed at a high temperature, residual stresses are bulit in the strucure when cooled down to the room temperature. The magnitude of the residual stress depends on the difference in the thermal expansion coefficients between core and cladding glass as well as on the temperature difference. Residual stress distribution determines the intrinsic strength and could affect the long term reliability of optical fibers. And furthermore, stress can introduces anisotropy into optical fibers by photoelastic effects. The analysis of thermal stress has been intensively studied for multimode fibers$^{(1)}$ and the authors and co-wokers recently reported the stress distribution in a depressed inner cladding structure$^{(2)}$ . The compositions of the glass in the previous studies, however, have been restricted to conventional glass formers, such as GeO2, B2O3, P2O5, Fluorine. (omitted)

This paper presents a monopulse feed structure with low sidelobe monopulse pattern, which consists of a E-plane corrugated horn and a unfiorm pick-up aperture power divider. Tfhe design methods and epxerimental resutls of the E-plane corrugated feeder are described. Modified hybrid mode analysis and GSM (generalized scattering matrix) methods are introduced to design the E-plane corrugated feed horns. The 24-port corrugated feeder is designed using modified hybrid mode analysis initially and verified using GSM methods. Measurement results show that this feeder has low return loss and sidelobe level at sum and difference channel, respectively.

The effects of modal noise of analog video transmission systems using semiconductor laser diode is investigated. The system linearity degradation due to modal noise is examined for various fiber types. It was concluded that in alalog video transmission systems using multimode fiber, modal noise is so serious that reduction of coherency is essential to the development and that single mode libers are adequate for high quality analog video transmission systems.

Calculation of the launch-condition dependent near field pattern, modal power distribution and far field pattern of the SGS mode scrambler by ray optical approch fits well with the experiment. These results were applied to explain how to establish the stable mode launching into the grated index multimode fiber under test by the SGS mode scrambler. The effective use of the 5G5 mode scrambler is found to restrict the launching NA as well as possible. This was also confirmed by experiment.

Modal properties of guided waves along circular dispersive double negative (DNG) index metamaterial rod waveguides are numerically investigated. Identical forms of dispersive dielectric and magnetic material constants are used for simplicity. For degenerated azimuthally symmetric mode, a multimode region, a single mode region, a band gap region and a forbidden region are found which cannot be observed in the case of the conventional dielectric rod waveguide. As the normalized frequency goes down, discrete guided modes are continuously generated, which is a reverse property of conventional dielectric rod waveguide. Also, there are high-frequency cutoffs, which have been generally examined in dispersive circular geometries such as a plasma column or a plasma Goubau line. In the single mode region, both the low- and high-frequency cutoffs are existed where the propagation constants are continued between the guided oscillating and surface modes.

AWG designed in this paper is considered with flat passband characteristics in the channel as a method for solving frequency stability problems of the sources in the conventional optical filters. This device can acquire the flat passband characteristics by inserting the multimode wave guides utilizing the self imaging effec between input wave guides and first star coupler. BPM simulation results show that the excess loss is smaller than 6.5 dB, the crosstalk is less than -22 dB and the 1 dB passband is about 50 GHz in the central channel.

Optical Triangulation Probes (OTPs) are widely used for their simple structure. high resolution, and long operating range. However, errors originating from speckle, inclination of the object, source power fluctuation, ambient light, and noise of the detector limit their usability. In this paper, we propose new design criteria for an error-reduced OTP. The light source module for the system consists of an incoherent light source and a multimode optical fiber for eliminating speckle and shaping a Gaussian beam Intensity profile. A diffuse-reflective white copy paper, which is attached to the object, makes the light intensity distribution on the change-coupled device(CCD). Since the peak positions of the intensity distribution are not related to the various error sources, a sub-pixel resolution signal processing algorithm that can detect the peak position makes it possible to construct an error-reduced OTP system

A numerical study is performed to predict the thermal response of a detailed card assembly during infrared reflow soldering. The card assembly is exposed to discontinuous infrared panel heater temperature distributions and high radiative/convective heating and cooling rates at the inlet and exit of the oven. The convective, radiative and conduction heat transfer within the reflow oven as well as within the card assembly are simulated and the predictions illustrate the detailed thermal responses. The predictions show that mixed convection plays an important role with relatively high frequency effects attributed to buoyancy forces, however the thermal response of the card assembly is dominated by radiation. The predictions of the detailed card assembly thermal response can be used to select the oven operating conditions to ensure proper solder melting and minimization of thermally induced card assembly tresses and warpage.

We have demonstrated a refractometer for liquid based on a side-polished fiber. The device consists of a side-polished single mode fiber and a rectangular space which plays a role of the multimode planar waveguide when it is infused with a liquid. We presented a simple method to acquire the refractive index of a liquid by use of the spacings of periodic resonance wavelengths of the device. The resolution of the fabricated refractometer was order of $10^{-5}$
