Graphene-based saturable absorbers (SAs) are widely used as laser mode-lockers at various laser oscillators. In particular, transmission-type graphene-SAs with ultrabroad spectral coverage are typically manufactured on transparent substrates with low nonlinearity to minimize the effects on the oscillators. Here, we developed two types of transmitting graphene SAs based on CaF₂ and ZnSe. Using the graphene-SA based on CaF₂, a passively mode-locked mid-infrared Cr:ZnS laser delivers relatively long 540 fs pulses with a maximum output power of up to 760 mW. In the negative net cavity dispersion regime, the pulse width was not reduced further by inhomogeneous group delay dispersion (GDD) compensation. In the same laser cavity, we replaced only the graphene-SA based on CaF₂ with the SA based on ZnSe. Due to the additional self-phase modulation effect induced by the ZnSe substrate with high nonlinearity, the stably mode-locked Cr:ZnS laser produced Fourier transform-limited ~130 fs near 2,340 nm. In the stable single-pulse operation regime, average output powers up to 635 mW at 234 MHz repetition rates were achieved. To our knowledge, this is the first attempt to achieve shorter pulse widths from a polycrystalline Cr:ZnS laser by utilizing the graphene deposited on the substrate with high nonlinearity.

축적된 분산(dispersion)과 비선형 효과에 의한 광 신호의 왜곡을 보상하기 위해 사용되는 분산 계수가 -125 ps/nm/km인 분산 보상 광섬유의 성능 지수 (figure of merit)에 따른 40 Gbps의 광 펄스의 보상 특성을 살펴보았다. 보상 특성이 광전송 링크를 구성하는 중계 구간 (fiber span)의 수가 많고 광 펄스의 입사 전력이 클수록 DCF의 성능 지수의 영향을 많이 받는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 광 펄스의 파장이 광섬유의 영 분산 파장으로부터 많이 벗어날수록 DCF의 성능 지수의 영향을 많이 받는 것을 확인하였다. 그러나 광전송 링크의 비선형 효과가 클수록 효과적인 보상을 위한 DCF의 성능 지수는 낮아져야 한다는 것을 동시에 확인하였다.

In dispersion management (DM) and optical phase conjugation applied into optical transmission links with multi fiber spans for minimizing the impact of nonlinearity and group velocity (GVD), implementation possibility of DM using only one fiber span for pre- or postcompensation was assessed as a function of duty cycle of RZ pulse and residual dispersion per span (RDPS). It is confirmed that DM with optimal net residual dispersion (NRD) controlled by only one fiber span could be sufficiently applied into optical transmission links, though optimal NRD is more increased than that in transmission links with the general DM scheme of pre- and postcompensation. Thus, it is expected that optical transmission system is simply designed and implemented by applying the proposed DM scheme into real optical transmission links. Also, it is confirmed that the advantageous duty cycle of RZ is 0.5 and RDPS is setting to be small value for the effective transmitting wide signal wavelength range in optical links with optimal NRD controlled by only one fiber span.

In this paper, the optimal value of optical phase conjugator (OPC) position and the optimal values of dispersion coefficients of fiber sections for the best compensation of the distorted WDM signals with frequency chirp of -1 are induced to alternate with the symmetrical distributions of power and local dispersion with respect to OPC, which is difficult to form in real optical link due to fiber attenuation in mid-span spectral inversion (MSSI) technique. It is confirmed that the Q-factors of total channels of -18.5 dBm launching light power exceed 16.9 dB, which value corresponds to 10-12 BER, by applying the induced optimal parameter values into 16 channels ${\times}$ 40 Gbps WDM system, on the other hand the Q-factors of only 9 channels exceed that value in WDM system with the conventional MSSI technique. Thus, it is expected to expand the availability of OPC in WDM system through the using of the optimal parameter values that are induced by the proposed method in this paper, without the symmetrical distributions of power and local dispersion.

이동통신에서, 신호의 페이딩을 보상하기 위하여 pilot symbol assisted modulation (PSAM)에 대한 많은 연구가 진행 되어왔다. 본 논문에서는 최대비합성 다이버시티를 사용하는 PSA-QAM에서 전력증폭기 비선형성 의 효과를 분석하였다. 먼저, PSAM성능의 한계를 구하기 위하여, 페이딩에 대한 완벽한 정보가 주어진 상태에서 최대비합성 다이버시티를 갖는 QAM의 이론적 성능을 분석하였다. 실제 PSAM에서, 페이딩에 대한 정보는 파일럿 심볼의 보간에 의하여 얻어진다. 오차의 평균전력을 최소화하는 보간필터를 사용하여 필터의 탭수, 파일럿 심볼 프레임 주기, 도플러 주파수가 성능에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 비선형 전력증폭기 AB, B, C급 의 AM/AM, AM/PM 특성을 성능분석 에 고려하였다. 비선형 보상기술인 Cartesian Feedback Loop (CFB) 이용하여 AWGN 채널과 Rayleigh 페이딩 채널에서 비선형 전력증폭기 종류에 따른 성능변화를 나타내었다.

In this paper, we proposed a cross-couple controller for compensating nonlinear friction of the X-Y table of CNC machines. Due to the nonlinearity of the frictions, large contour errors, referred to as quadrant glitches, occur when each axis of the X-Y table makes a zero velocity crossing. To reduce the quadrant glitches the friction compensators and nonlinear friction observers for estimating Coulomb frictions are employed in the proposed method. A hyperbolic tangent function is used in reducing the magnitude of quadrant glitches and the CEM (Contour Error Model) is utilized for the estimation of the velocities. The performance of the proposed compensators is evaluated for several trajectories by computer simulations.

In this paper, a new time-domain adaptive predistortion scheme is proposed to compensate for the nonlinearity of high power amplifiers (HPA) in OFDM systems. A complex Wiener-Hammerstein model (WHM) is adopted to describe the input-output relationship of unknown HPA with linear dynamics, and a power series model with memory (PSMWM) is used to approximate the HPA expressed by WHM. By using the PSMWM, the compensation input to HPA is calculated in a real-time manner so that the linearization from the predistorter input to the HPA output can be attained even if the nonlinear input-output relation of HPA is uncertain and changeable. In numerical example, the effectiveness of the proposed method is confirmed and compared with the identification method based on PSMWM.

The human sensibility caused by the motion of an object grasped by a human operator is defined as kinesthetic sense of arm. Due to nonlinearity and ambiguity of human sense, there is no absolute standard for quantification of kinesthetic sense. In this research, a so-called 2-dimensional arm motion generator is developed to present various mechanical impedance (i.e., stiffness or damping) characteristics to a human arm. The kinesthetic words representing arm kinesthetic sense are selected and then the subject's satisfaction levels on these words for given impedance values are measured and processed by the SD method and factor analysis. In addition, the quantification method using neural network is proposed to take into account the individual difference between the mean sensibility and each subject's sensibility. Through this proposed algorithm, the sensibility of human motion described qualitatively can be converted into engineering data ensuring objectivity, reproducibility, and universality.

This paper proposes a neural network controller with the computed torque method. The neural network is used not to learn the inverse dynamic model but to compensate the uncertainties of robotic manipulators. When training the neural network, we use the signals present in the proposed controller, which is simpler than that proposed by Ishiguro et al., whose teaching signals of the neural network come from the robot model.

Generally, a voltage difference exists between the reference and the output voltagesin a pulse width modulated (PWM) voltage source inverter (VSI). In this paper, the nonlinearity in a PWM VSI is analyzed and a new on-line estimation method in consideration of parameter variations for a permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) is proposed to compensate the time varying voltage distortion.
