In long-haul optical communication system consisting of standard single-mode fiber spans and fiber amplifiers, such as the erbium-doped fiber amplifier, performance is deteriorated by signal distortion due to chromatic dispersion and nonlinearity of the fiber. A combination of dispersion management and optical phase conjugation is an effective technique to compensate for the distortion. In an optical link configured by this combination, a dispersion map mainly affects the compensation of the distorted optical signals. This paper proposes new dispersion maps configured by the decaying or expanding distribution of residual dispersion per span (RDPS) in a dispersion-managed link combined with a midway optical phase conjugator. The effect of the proposed dispersion maps on the compensation for distorted 24 channel × 40 Gbps wavelength-division multiplexed signals was assessed through numerical simulation. It was confirmed that all the proposed dispersion maps are most appropriate for the compensation and, furthermore, for the flexibility of link configuration than conventional links.

장거리 초고속 단일모드 광파이버 전송 시스템에서, 색분산은 복조된 파형의 찌그러짐을 생기게 하며, 그 결과 수신된 신호 간 간섭을 일으켜 전송 시스템의 성능을 저하시킨다. 본 논문에서는 강도변조-직접검파 시스 댐의 색분산제한을위상변조에서 진폭변조로의 전환잡음의 영향을고려함으로서 연구하였다. 파이버 색분산에 의한 위상-진폭으로의 전환잡음을 잡음전력 스펙트럼 밀도를 유도함으로서 분석하였으며 위상-진폭 전환잡음을 피하기 위한 시스댐 전력손실과 레이저 선폭에 대한 요구조건을 수치해석을 통하여 구하였다.

Kerr cell 광스위치를 옥소 레이저 증폭단에서 짧은 펄스를 발생시키는 광절단기로서 그리고 이후의 증폭기들을 광학적으로 분리하는 격리기로 사용하였다. Kerr cell 양단에 인가된 전위차에 따른 편광의 회전에 의해 입사된 펄스를 자를 수 있음을 보였으며 회로의 전기적 특성을 이용하여 케이블의 길이차에 의해 5ns와 1ns 펄스를 발생시켰다. 공진기에서 펄스폭이 긴 펄스가 발생한 경우 한개 이상의 단축된 출력 펄스가 발생함을 확인하였다. 또한 Kerr cell의 동작전압을 변화시켜 얻은 투과도를 Kerr 이론과 비교하였다. 단축된 펄스를 옥소레이저 전 증폭기를 통해 증폭하여 4ns 펄스에서 2J의 출력을 얻어 0.5GW의 최종출력을 얻었다.

Although designing a virtual topology for all-optical WDM wide-area networks has been extensively studied and several algorithms have been proposed, these algorithms assumed error-free communication between two nodes. However, noises from optical amplifiers and optical cross-connects can degraded the signal, resulting in a nonzero bit-error rate. In this paper, we investigate the effect of physical limitations on the virtual topology design. We show that for side-area all-optical networks where transmission distance is fairly long, virtual topology design algorithm that can determine the locations of opto-electronic(OE) and electro-optic(EO) conversions to set up a connection request with a high BER in a multihop manner.

Optical coherence tomography(OCT) is high resolution imaging system which can see the cross section of microscopic organs in the living tissue. In this paper, we analyze the relation between the light source and the resolution of modulated signal in Michelson interferometer. We construct 1-D OCT signal processing hardware such as amplifiers, filters, and demodulate electronic signals from the photo detector. In order to get 2-D OCT image, the synchronization among optical delay line, sample stage and A/D converter is dealt with. In experiments, we verify analog and digital signal processing blocks which apply to the stacks of glasses. Finally we aquire high resolution 2-D OCT image with respect to the onion tissue. We expect that this result can be applied to the medical instrument through performance improvement.

Using bi-direction SOA based Extension system, FTTH can enhance PON system by increasing both the upstream and downstream link budget. This increased link budget can be used to extend the distance, increase the split ratio or both. The bi-direction SOA regenerates signals using all-optical amplification, and is therefore transparent to data rate or protocol. The bi-direction SOA supports legacy as well as future FTTx standards. This is based on SOA's proprietary technology platform for the manufacturing of advanced discrete photonics and photonic integrated circuits (PICs). Because the bi-direction SOA uses the same InP semiconductor technology used in virtually all telecom lasers, it is able to amplify signals at 1310 and 1490 nm, wavelengths not accessible with commercial fiber-amplifier (EDFA) technology. Due to the extremely fast response time of the InP semiconductor optical amplifiers inside, the SOA can accommodate both continuous (downstream) and bursty (upstream) traffic.

We have evaluated the suppression effect of atmospheric-turbulence-induced optical scintillation in terrestrial free-space optical (FSO) communication systems using a gain-saturated erbium-doped fiber amplifier (EDFA). The variation of EDFA output signal power has been measured with different amounts of gain saturation and modulation indices of the optical input signal. From the measured results, we have found that the peak-to-peak power variation was decreased drastically below 2 kHz of modulation frequency, in both 3-dB and 6-dB gain compression cases. Then, the power spectral density (PSD) of optical scintillation has been calculated with Butterworth-type transfer function. In the calculation, different levels of atmospheric-turbulence-induced optical scintillation have been taken into account with different values of the Butterworth cut-off frequency. Finally, the suppression effect of optical scintillation has been estimated with the measured frequency response of the EDFA and the calculated PSD of the optical scintillation. From our estimated results, the atmospheric-turbulence-induced optical scintillation could be suppressed efficiently, as long as the EDFA were operated in a deeply gain-saturated region.

Over the past few years, due to the great development of optical communications, an increasing R&D activity has been focused on the design and manufacture of the integrated optic amplifiers, with particular reference to their application in wavelength-division-multiplexing (WDM) systems. In this technological context, rare-earth-doped oxide glasses, which had been widely used for solid state lasers, gained much attention as highly performing materials in the third telecom window, around 1.5 micron. The aim of the present paper is to provide a brief overview of the progress made, with particular reference to the authors' work in this area, and to shortly discuss its perspectives.

에르븀 첨가 광섬유 증폭기(EDFA)를 제작하여 장거리 전송 시의 이득, 신호대 잡음비와 대역을 측정하였다. 이득 \ulcorner탄화 되지 않은 EDFA를 recirculating loop에 넣어 장거리 전송 실험을 한 결과 EDFA 20회 통과시에는 3dB 이득 변화를 보이는 대역이 6nm이다. 반면에 이득 평탄화 된 EDFA는 1dB 이득 대역이 22nm 이며, EDFA 100회 통과시에 9nm대역이 5dB 이내에 들게 되어 여러 파장을 동시에 초장거리 전송 할 수 있음을 확인하였다.
