This paper proposes a new dynamic wavelength allocation algorithm for TWDM PON (time and wavelength division multiplexed passive optical network) which comprises of multiple ONUs (optical network units) which have low-speed wavelength tuner. The wavelength tuner requires large amount of frame times to tune its wavelength. An OLT (optical line termination) performs a dynamic bandwidth allocation after the wavelengths of ONUs are determined.

In this paper, we address the problem of efficient routing and wavelength assignment (RWA) in multi-fiber wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) networks without wavelength translation, under dynamic traffic. We couple Dijkstra's shortest path algorithm with a suitable weight function which chooses optical paths based both on wavelength availability and multi-fiber segments. We compare our approach with other RWA schemes both for regular and irregular WDM multi-fiber network topologies in terms of blocking probability and overall link utilization.

The modern infrared (IR) imaging systems use mainly one or more wavelength bands among short wavelength IR (SWIR), middle wavelength IR (MWIR), and long wavelength IR (LWIR) bands. In the process of IR image synthesis and modeling, IR image wavelength-band conversion which transforms arbitrary band image to other band one is required. The wavelength-band conversion procedure includes a temperature estimation process of an object surface. However, in this procedure, an approximated Planck's radiation equation causes errors in estimated temperature. In this paper, we propose an estimation temperature error attenuation method in IR image band conversion procedure. The estimated temperature is corrected with a slope information of radiance according to it. The corrected temperature is used for generation of the other band IR image. The verification of proposed method is demonstrated through the simulation.

In this paper, we propose an efficient dynamic wavelength assignment algorithm in distributed WDM (Wavelength-Division Multiplexing) networks without wavelength conversion. The algorithm tries to assign a locally-most-used wavelength distributedly on a fixed routing path. We first formulate our algorithm by using the concept of a sample space which consists of optical fibers connected to nodes on a routing path of a lightpath to be assigned a wavelength. In particular, we analyze the blocking performance mathematically as compared with that of the most-used (MU) wavelength assignment algorithm previously proposed for WDM networks under centralized control. We also obtain numerical results by simulation on the blocking performance of other centralized/distributed wavelength assignment algorithms as well as our algorithm using the M/M/c/c dynamic traffic model. Consequently, we show that analytical results match simulation results and that our algorithm is efficient in distributed WDM networks in terms of blocking performance, control traffic overhead and computation complexity.

This paper studies the effects of wavelength conversion on self-healing optical networks. We examined the effects of wavelength conversion capability on the backup routing and the spare wavelength utilization. The efficiency of spare wavelength utilization is proportionally increased as the wavelength conversion capability increases, different from the call blocking probability for which about 30% of wavelength conversion capability shows nearly the same performance as full wavelength conversion capability. The spare resource utilization efficiency can be improved by using alternate routing and wavelength assignment algorithms.

PURPOSES : Pavement textures can be categorized into four according to wavelength: microtexture, macrotexture, megatexture (roads), and roughness. Pavement surface texture influences a number of aspects of tire-pavement interaction such as wet-weather friction, tire-pavement noise, splash, spray, tire-wear, and rolling resistance. In particular, macrotexture is the pavement surface characteristic that considerably impacts tire-pavement noise. In general, it can be demonstrated that tire-pavement noise increases with the increase of texture depth and wavelength. Recently, mean profile depth (MPD) and wavelength have been used to evaluate tire-pavement noise. This study aimed to identify the relationship between mean profile depth and average wavelength for asphalt pavement based on the information obtained on a number of asphalt pavement sections. METHODS : Profile data were collected from a number of expressway sections in Korea. In addition, mean profile depth and average wavelength were calculated by using this profile data. Statistical analysis was performed to determine the correlationship between mean profile depth and average wavelength. RESULTS:This study demonstrates a linear relationship between mean profile depth and average wavelength for asphalt concrete pavement. CONCLUSIONS :The strong relationship between mean profile depth and average wavelength of asphalt pavement was determined in this study.

This paper is the research on the heated CWDM optical transmitter for the wavelength compensation at the low temperature. In general, the wavelength deviation of DFB laser is around 0.1 nm/C. The wavelength of DFB laser shifts to longer(shorter) wavelength according to the temperature increase(decrease). Typical CWDM optical communication network has 20 nm channel spacing from reference center wavelength per each channel. There is some limitation problem in the range of operating temperature due to the channel interference. For solving the limited temperature range problem, especially at the low temperature, we use the heater on the DFB laser. As a result, we could realize the CWDM optical transmitter to meet +/-6.5 nm from reference center wavelength in the range of temperature at $-40{\sim}+85^{\circ}C$, which is applicable to the industrial field.

This paper proposes a wavelength sensor based on the optical directional coupler. The finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) is used in analysis of the field intensity of tile light propagating thorough the structure. The device with tile width of 0.4 $\mu\textrm{m}$ and the thickness of 0.4 $\mu\textrm{m}$, which corresponding with the coupling length of 40$\mu\textrm{m}$, would provide tile linear relationship between the coupling efficiency against the wavelength. The device can sense the wavelength in a range between 1.5$\mu\textrm{m}$ and 1.6$\mu\textrm{m}$, with continuous resolution. The wide wavelength could be also done be paralleling th light to a number of wavelength-sensing modules with particularly required bands. Therefore, it could be employed as the wavelength sensing for most optical communications, optoelectronics, laser applications and etc.

We demonstrate a wavelength swept mode-locked ring laser for the frequency domain optical coherence tomography(FD OCT). A laser is constructed by using a semiconductor optical amplifier, fiber Fabry-Perot tunable filter and 2.6 km fiber ring cavity. Mode-locking is implemented by 2.6 km fiber ring cavity for matching the fundamental or harmonic of cavity roundtrip time to a sweep period. The wavelength sweeps are repetitively generated with the repetition period of 77.2 kHz which is the parallel resonance frequency of Fabry-Perot tunable filter for the low driving current consumption of the fiber Fabry-Perot tunable filter. The wavelength tuning range of the laser is more than FWHM of 61 nm centered at the wavelength of 1320 nm and the linewidth of the source is $0.014{\pm}0.002$ nm.

In this study, the characteristics of the 2-wavelength white organic light-emitting diod (WOLED) with two colors of yellow and blue were compared and analyzed with 3-wavelength WOLED with three colors of red, green, and blue. The results indicated that the power efficiency of the 2-wavelength WOLED was 1.6 times higher than 3-wavelength WOLED. In addition, the colot coordinate of the 2-wavelenth WOLED which was (0.34, 0.39) was found closer to the optimal color coordinate for the white-lighting application when compared with that of the 3-wavelength WOLED.
