  • We introduce a spectral reconstruction method to enhance the spectral resolution in a static modulated Fourier-transform spectrometer. The optical-path difference and the interferogram in the focal plane, as well as the relationship of the interferogram and the spectrum, are discussed. Additionally, for better spectral reconstruction, applications of phase-error correction and apodization are considered. As a result, the transfer function of the spectrometer is calculated, and then the spectrum is reconstructed based on the relationship between the transfer function and the interferogram. The spectrometer comprises a modified Sagnac interferometer. The spectral reconstruction is conducted with a source with central wave number of 6,451 cm-1 and spectral width of 337 cm-1. In a conventional Fourier-transform method the best spectral resolution is 27 cm-1, but by means of the spectral reconstruction method the spectral resolution improved to 8.7 cm-1, without changing the interferometric structure. Compared to a conventional Fourier-transform method, the spectral width in the reconstructed spectrum is narrower by 20 cm-1, and closer to the reference spectrum. The proposed method allows high performance for static modulated Fourier-transform spectrometers.

  • The bias characteristics due to the changes of temperature and temperature gradient of fiber coil are investigated in fiber-optic gyroscope. The bias performance is degraded with the changes of temperature and temperature gradient of fiber coil. The temperature compensation using both the temperature-dependent bias measurement and the temperature-induced error model of fiber-optic gyroscope improves the bias stability about 3 times as much as the uncompensated original case, which leads to very stable bias performance over the temperature range from $-35^{\circ}C$ to $+77^{\circ}C$.

  • In this paper, an optical fiber sensor(OF sensor) utilizing the principal of Sagnac interferometer was proposed to detect the discharge signals which generated from needle-sphere electrode system in insulating oil. The performance of OF sensor was checked by sinusoidal calibration signal generated by PZT acuator at 198kHz. The detected discharge signals consisted of acoustic signal and the electrical noise. The noise signal could be removed by digital low pass filter. It was demonstrated that the OF sensor in this research had a possibility to detect the discharge signals in power apparatus.

  • 본 연구에서는 광섬유 자이로(Fiber Optic Gyro)의 광학부 간섭계를 모사하고자 한다. 디지털 신호처리를 이용하여 광섬유 고리의 응답특성을 모사한다. 디지털 신호의 1bit 분해능으로 0.1deg/hr의 성능을 내는 광섬유 자이로를 모사하기엔 부족하다. 본 연구에서는 Random Noise를 활용하여 분해능을 높임으로써 광섬유 고리의 성능을 정확히 모사하고자 한다. 입력 레이트에 Random Noise를 실어줌으로써 1bit 분해능의 성능을 높일 수 있다. 1bit 사이의 값들이 랜덤노이즈로 인해 1bit 더해지거나 빼짐으로써 정확한 값을 갖을 수 있다.

  • Highly-Birefringent Photonic Crystal Fiber (Hi-Bi PCF) is composed of a single material, silica, so that its temperature sensitivity is extremely low. Therefore, we propose afiber based Sagnac interferometer for measurement of strain and curvature independent of temperature variation. The sensitivities of strain and curvature (both axes) are measured to be $1.41\;pm/{\mu}{\varepsilon}$ and $0.93nm/m^{-1}$(slow axis Y), $-1.6\;nm/m^{-1}$(fast axis X), respectively.

  • In this research Sagnac interferometer three different types of mandrel are suggested and this fiber optic sensor is using in monitoring of electric transformer. Vibration characteristics of those mandrels were analyzed and finally more sensitivity mandrel are suggested. Three different mandrels using in fiber optic sensor are hollow cylinder with outer bump, pure hollow cylinder, hollow cylinder with inner bump. Natural frequencies and mode shapes are investigated using finite element method. Mode shape are considered at the frequency range from 2 kHz to 20 kHz. Fundamental dimensions of the hollow cylinder type's mandrel are 30 mm in outer diameter, 50 mm in length, 1 mm in cylinder thickness, $2mm{\times}2mm$ in bump size. Based on the finite element results, when the outer acoustic frequency is near 11 kHz outer bump type and hollow cylinder can get higher sensitivity. Near 17 kHz outer bump and inner bump mandrel can get higher sensitivity. Near 20 kHz hollow cylinder and inner bump mandrel is useful. This results can be applied to design of fiber optic sensor using in monitoring the electrical transformer. Several MHz of outer acoustic frequency can be easily detected using more sensitive mandrel in pursuing expand this technique.
