We propose a new technique for the optical encryption of gray-level optical images digitized into 8-bits binary data by ASCII encoding followed by QPSK modulation. We made an encrypted digital hologram with a security key by using 2-step phase-shifting digital holography, and the encrypted digital hologram is recorded on a CCD camera with 256 gray-level quantized intensities. With these encrypted digital holograms, the phase values are reconstructed by the same security key and are decrypted into the original gray-level optical image by demodulation and decoding. Simulation results show that the proposed method can be used for cryptosystems and security systems.

We have proposed the 4-Dimensional Multiple-Subcarrier Modulation with fixed bias in Optical Wireless Communications. Here, the 4-D signal vectors are derived from the optimization technique of signal waveforms maximizing the minimum distance between signal points in an n-dimensional Euclidean sphere. The resulting vectors are used in generating the output amplitude of impulse generator in a Multiple-Subcarrier Modulation scheme. We have achieved that the normalized power requirement of the proposed system is maximum 3 dB and 3.3 dB smaller than those of normal QPSK, Reserved Subcarrier, and Minimum Power scheme, respectively. Also, in the range of 1.125 ∼ 1.25 of the normalized bandwidth, the proposed system has maximum 3 dB, 2 ∼ 4 dB, 0 ∼ 3 dB smaller bandwidth requirement compare to normal QPSK, Res. Subcarrier, Min. Power schemes, respectively.

Transmission performances of direct detection-based 100-Gb/s modulation formats are investigated and compared for metro area optical networks. The effects of optical signal-to-noise ratio sensitivity, chromatic dispersion, cross-channel nonlinearity, and transmission distance on the performance of differential 8-ary phase-shift keying (D8PSK), differential phase-shift keying plus three-level amplitude-shift keying (DPSK+3ASK), and dual-carrier differential quaternary phase-shift keying (DC-DQPSK) are evaluated. The performance of coherent dual-polarization quadrature phase-shift keying (DP-QPSK) with block phase estimation and coherent DP-QPSK with digital differential detection are also presented for reference. According to our analysis, all three direct detection modulation formats could transmit a 100-Gb/s signal over several hundred kilometers of a single-mode fiber link. The results also show that DC-DQPSK outperforms D8PSK and DPSK+3ASK, and the performance of DC-DQPSK is comparable to that of coherent DP-QPSK with digital differential detection. The maximum transmission distance of DC-DQPSK is over 1,000 km, which is enough distance for metro applications.

In this paper, we have proposed a OFDM/QPSK-DMR(Orthogonal frequency Division Multiplexing/Quadrature Phase Shift Keying Modulation-Digital Microwave Radio)system using BL-PSF(Band-limited pulse shaping filter) over the Microwave channel. In the proposed DMR system, STS-1(51.84 Mbps) of SONET(Synchronous Optical NETwork) is first modulated by OFDM/QPSK symbol and used Band-limited pulse shaping filter. The advantage of the proposed DMR system is to simplify system complexity and increase IFFT/FFT block use-efficiency. The system performance of single carrier and OFDM systems is already proved that those of DMR systems have the same performance over AWGN(Additive White Gaussian Noise) channel environment. Therefore, the system is analyzed between proposed OFDM/QPSK-DMR and single carrier DMR systems and simulated by BER performance and Signature curve over Microwave channel environment. Simulation result is that the proposed system performances are approaching to the performance of single carrier DMR system as the number of Sub-carriers increasing.

A novel approach for frequency-tripling vector signal generation via balanced detection without precoding and optical filter is proposed. The scheme is mainly utilizing an integrated dual-polarization quadrature phase shift keying (DPQPSK) modulator. In the DPQPSK modulator, one QPSK modulator is driven by an RF signal to generate high-order optical sidebands, while the other QPSK modulator is modulated by I/Q data streams to produce baseband vector signal as an optical carrier. After that, a frequency-tripling 16-quadrature-amplitude-modulation (16QAM) vector millimeter-wave (mm-wave) signal can be obtained by balanced detection. The proposed scheme can reduce the complexity of transmitter digital signal processing. The results show that, a 4 Gbaud baseband 16QAM vector signal can be generated at 30 GHz by frequency-tripling. After 10 km single-mode fiber (SMF) transmission, the constellation and eye diagrams of the generated vector signal perform well and a bit-error-rate (BER) below than 1e-3 can be achieved.

Underwater optical wireless communication (UOWC) is a good candidate for high-speed underwater wireless communication. In this work, we compare the performance of several modulation techniques for a UOWC system consisting of a light-emitting diode (LED) with an operating wavelength of 405 nm and a Si avalanche photodiode (APD). In this work, we consider six modulation schemes: 4-quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM), 8-QAM, quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK), binary phase shift keying (BPSK), on-off keying (OOK), and 4-pulse amplitude modulation (PAM). We also consider the cases of pure water and seawater for the working conditions. Our results show that 4-QAM and 8-QAM perform the best, in terms of communication distance and transmission power efficiency, for all water types considered.

In this paper, we develop a prototype of the Optical SCM transmission module. This module is possible to application to electric facilities for control and measurements. Transmission channel number is two channels, namely, image and digital signal. In the image transmission, modulation method is AM, baseband signal is NTSC video signal and demodulation use PLL. Modulation of digital signal is QPSK, 1.544Mbps and demodulation use PLL. First, we calculate theoretical analysis about RF and Optical link in the transmission. This calculation is well correspond with practical system and transmission experiment is excellent, but this is only two channel model. And now, we plan to multichannel transmission to measure intermodulation, frequency assignments and optimal channel numbers et al.

A new technique, which can increase the channel bandwidth in an optical wireless orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) link based on a light emitting diode (LED), is proposed. The technique uses adaptive sampling to convert an OFDM signal to a sparse waveform. In compressive sensing (CS), a sparse signal that is sampled below the Nyquist/Shannon limit can be reconstructed successively with sufficient measurements. The data rate of the proposed CS-based visible light communication (VLC)-OFDM link increases from 30.72 Mb/s to 51.2 Mb/s showing an error vector magnitude (EVM) of 31 % at the quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK) symbol.

An optical coherent system is considered for the next-generation optical access networks in enhancing the data rate and transmission distance. In this system, however, I/Q amplitude imbalance may occur at several parts of the system, leading to serious performance degradation. Asymmetric structure of a coherent receiver at the location of subscriber is one of the sources of I/Q imbalance. Therefore, this imbalance parameters must be removed or compensated to secure the transmission performance. In this paper, the source of I/Q amplitude imbalance is analyzed, and then the way to compensate for the imbalance at the receiver side is suggested. Performance after the compensation is estimated using simulation.
