Three methods for gain saturation tone application were compared for optical wavelength division multiplexing transmission using more than 32 channels. The methods are to use high power distributed feedback laser diodes, to use amplified light sources, and lastly to use one saturation tone and several WDM light sources. 1532.3 nm, 1545.7 nm, and 1558.2 nm for the wavelength dependency of the saturation tone were also compared. As a result, the effect of amplified spontaneous emission noise caused by an amplifier was very slight. long wavelength for a saturation tone caused 1 dB gain reduction and its reason was analyzed.

We studied the effect of $Co^{60}$ gamma-radiation on the FBGs by a variation of grating the fabrication parameters. The FBGs were fabricated in a different UV KrF laser intensity using the same boron co-doped photo-sensitive fiber and exposed to gamma-radiation up to a dose of 33.8 kGy. According to the experimental data and analysis results, We confirmed that the laser intensity for grating inscription has a highly effect on the radiation sensitivity of the FBGs and the radiation-induced Bragg wavelength shift by the change of laser process condition showed a difference more than about 30 %.

We systematically investigated the effects of InAs coverage variation, two-step annealing and an asymmetric InGaAs quantum well (QW) on the structural and optical characteristics of InAs quantum dots (QDs) by using atomic force microscopy (AFM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and photoluminescence (PL) measurement. The transition of size distribution of InAs QDs from bimodal to multi-modal was noticeably observed with increasing InAs coverage. By means of two-step annealing, it is found that significant narrowing of the luminescence linewidth (from 132 to 31 meV) from the InAs QDs occurs together with about 150 meV blueshift, compared to as-grown InAs QDs. Finally, the InAs QDs emitting at longer wavelength of $1.3\;{\mu}m$ with narrow linewidth were grown by an asymmetric InGaAs QW. The excited-state transition for the InAs QDs with an asymmetric InGaAs QW was not noticeably observed due to the large energy-level spacing between the ground states and the first excited states. The InAs QDs with an asymmetric InGaAs QW will be promising for the device applications such as $1.3\;{\mu}m$ optical-fiber communication.

In optical fiber communications, several newly-developed signal formats are used to obtain the best performance within limited spectral bandwidth. CSRZ (carrier-suppressed return-to-zero) format is one of the new signal formats, which has better spectral efficiency and better robustness to dispersion than RZ (return-to-zero) format. Thus it is widely used for demonstrating high-speed optical communication systems. In an earlier research, we proposed a clock-extraction method of CSRZ signal to monitor chromatic dispersion. However, the clock-frequency component extracted by the clock-extraction method can be affected by the bandwidth of a transmitter or a receiver. Therefore, in this paper, we investigate the effect of bandwidth on the chromatic dispersion monitoring of CSRZ signal based on clock-frequency component. As a result, we propose a couple of robust clock-extraction methods to monitor chromatic dispersion in CSRZ signal.

The existing monitoring and control systems of utility-pipe conduit (power tunnel, cable tunnel etc) have established communication lines using optical fiber, leaky coaxial cable (LCX), and several kinds of control cable. Due to the properties of the used media, the cost of equipment is considerably high and the maintenance of the system is difficult. Also, the term of carrying out is long so that the extension of the system is in difficulty. Now it is desirable to adopt Power Line Communication (hereinafter, PLC) technology in the monitoring and control systems and use the existing low-voltage power-line for lamplight as communication line. This will lead the reduction of the construction cost and the easy maintenance of the system. In this paper, we research the characteristics of PLC in conduit, design and manufacture the field test system, and analyze the performance of the system by field test. Then, we introduce the reliable monitoring and control system of utility-pipe conduit using PLC.

The supply expansion of 5G services and personal smart devices has caused the sharp increase of data traffic and the demand of various services. Again, these facts have resulted in the huge demand of network bandwidth. However, existing network technologies using electronic signal have reached the limit to accommodate the demand. Therefore, in order to accept this request, optical internet has been studied actively. However, optical internet still has a lot of problems to solve, and among these barriers a very urgent issue is to develop QoS technologies. Hence, in order to achieve service differentiation between classes in optical internet, especially in OBS network, a new QoS method automatically tuning the size of data bursts is proposed in this article. Especially, the algorithm suggested in this article is based on fiber delay line.

The need for MAN(Metropolitan Area Network)has been increased by demands for high performance comuter communication. According to the definition of MAN by IEEE 802.6 MANs have diameter of about 50km, bandwidth of more than 1Mbps, and limited delay, Because optical fibers have unique characteristics that make them attractive for the implementation of MANs several fiber optic networks suitable for MAN application have been proposed. Those networks have drawbacks such as unlimited delay, many processing nodes and limited number of stations. Also IEEE 802.6 proposals and oters improved networks were proposed, but they have complicated access procedures and data buffering and difficulties in implementation. This paper descrives the design of Fiber Optic Metropolitan Area Network in Seoul(Seoul FOMAN) to overcome the drawback, Seoul FOMAN is hierarchical MAN and designed based on the topology of 43 end offices in Seoul. We propose MAN topology, proper access protocol and analyze the performance.

We propose a novel method to reduce laser chirp and improve modulation performance in semiconductor laser by using dual-electrode structure. Dual-electrode structure is realized by segmenting a electrode on top of gain medium, as was the case of edge emitting laser diode, into electrically isolated two electrodes. By using the proposed structure, we have experimentally achieved a reduction of laser spectral width of 0.23 nm and an improvement of 2.5-dB receiver sensitivity at an 80-km fiber transmission for 10-Gbps NRZ (non-return-to zero) data stream.

Lightwave communication system for Wavelength division multiplexing(WDM) consists of multiplexer, demultiplexer and optical Inter. But, the existing multiplexer, demultiplexer and optical filter is difficult to minimize system and reduce weight because they are not integrated device type. In this paper, thus, we propose the OADM baed on a Mach-Zehnder interferometer(MZI) with FBG(fiber Bragg Slating) in the interferometer Ems. The OADM using FBG. and MZI is able to minimize system and reduce weight. We analyze output characteristics of OADM and present the optimum design data through the computer simulation and experimentation. Also unposed OADM fits for DWDM(Dense WDM) system because of wide bandwidth by tuning narrow linewidth.
