We introduce a simple optically passive detection scheme for Bragg grating sensors. This detection scheme is based on two cavity lengths in Fabry-Perot read-out interferometers to produce two quadrature phase shifted signals from the Bragg grating sensor. The passive detection technique is demonstrated by the use of Bragg grating sensors in measuring the dynamic vibrations of the composites.

A Mach-Zehnder interferometer using single mode optical fiber was constructed which operates in homodyne detection scheme. Its response to air-borne soun pressure was examined experimentally. A signal stabilizer was developed for maintaining optical fiber interferometer in quadrature condition using a cylindrical piezoelectric stretcher. This maintains the optical fiber sensor at a maximum sensitivity in the presence of the phase drift caused by temperature fluctuation and other types of environmental disturbances.

Equivalent-time sampling can improve measurement or sensing systems because it enables a broader frequency band and higher delay resolution for periodic signals with lower sampling rates than a Nyquist receiver. Meanwhile, a digital down-conversion (DDC) technique can be implemented using a straightforward radio frequency (RF) circuit. It avoids timing skew and in-phase/quadrature gain imbalance instead of requiring a high-speed analog-to-digital converter to sample an intermediate frequency (IF) signal. Therefore, when equivalent-time sampling and DDC techniques are combined, a significant synergy can be achieved. This study provides a parameter design methodology for optimal equivalent-time sampling using DDC.

The possibility of energy harvesting as well as vibration of a three-layered beam consisting of two piezoelectric layers and one core layer made of nonpiezoelectric material is investigated using nonlocal strain gradient theory. The three-layered nanobeam is resting on an elastic foundation. Hamilton's principle is used to derive governing equations and associated boundary conditions. The generalized differential quadrature method (GDQM) was used to discretize the equations, and the Newmark beta method was used to solve them. The size-dependency of the elastic foundation is considered using two-phase elasticity. The equations, as well as the solution procedure, are validated utilizing some compassion studies. This work can be a basis for future studies on energy harvesting of small scales.

In this paper, we propose a new fast carrier recovery algorithm for high-order QAM systems. The proposed algorithm detects carrier frequency offset from the phase differences among the received symbols directly and combines it with the conventional carrier recovery, so that it is possible to achieve the carrier recovery with wide tracking range and fast acquisition time. Simulation results show that the proposed carrier recovery method reduces acquisition time at large frequency offset and low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR).

In this paper, we proposed a 3 dB coupler using N-section parallel-coupled lines and designed a very compact one based on the analysis results. The coupled line has been analyzed by spectral domain method. After we obtain the s-parameters of N-section parallel-coupled lines by using port reduction method 4-port s-parameters are derived. The 3 dB couplers, which were fabricated, are not necessary to implement high impedance lines and tight coupling gaps as Lange Couplers because loose coupling is used. To realize a minimum section, we used the PCB that has high a dielectric constant and a thickness. The experimental results show that it has wide bandwidth of about 42 %(0.5 dB unbalance) from 3.6 GHz to 5.5 GHz and phase difference within 1 degree. Also, The isolation characteristics about 15 dB at its pass-band are obtained.

In this paper, we have analyzed the performance enhancement of 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. For performance enhancement, we apply the one-tap adaptive equalizer for OFDM/QPSK-DMR system and compare with the BER performance of single carrier DMR system. Computer simulations confirm that the OFDM/QPSK-DMR system using one-tap adaptive equalizer has the same BER performance for the single carrier DMR system.

The precision stage is an essential device for optic fiber assembly systems, micro machines and semiconductor equipments. A new piezoelectric inchworm type actuator is proposed to implement an actuator-integrated long-stroke linear stage. An in-and-quadrature phase (I/Q) heterodyne interferometer is developed as a feedback sensor of a servo system, and a synchronized counting method is proposed. The proposed measurement system can measure the accurate position of fast moving object with robustness to external sensing noise from actuator vibration. The developed servo stage will be applied to optic fiber device assembly system.

표면 형상을 측정하는 방법은 샘플표면의 평평도, 곡률, 거칠기, 깊이 측정등의 수많은 상업적 응용을 위해 광범위하게 개발되어왔다. 이중에서도 특히 간섭현상을 이용한 광 표면 프로파일러는 표면의 3차원 구조를 측정하는데 있어서 subangstrom의 매우 높은 깊이 분해능을 가지므로 샘플 표면의 정밀 진단에 많이 사용되어 왔다. [1,2] 광 간섭 현미경은 기본적으로 광위상 변화를 검출하여 그것을 표면구조변화로 바꾸어주는 역할을 한다. 그러나 광위상 변화는 샘플 표면의 구조뿐만 아니라 물질 변화와 박막두께 변화에도 민감하므로 순수한 표면구조측정은 샘플이 단일물질인 경우에만 달성된다는 문제점이 있다. 따라서 이러한 광위상 측정과 관련된 ambiguity를 해결하기 위해서는 일반적인 광 간섭 현미경에서 얻어지는 위상데이터와 더불어 물질변화를 분석할 수 있는 다른 추가적인 데이터가 필요하다. 이러한 필요성 때문에 우리는 광위상 뿐만 아니라 반사율 분포도 동시에 측정할 수 있는 새로운 방식의 다출력단 호모다인 간섭계(Homodyne I/Q Interferometer; HIQI)를 구성하였으며[3], 그 실험장치도는 [Fig. 1]과 같다. HIQI는 in-phase and quadrature 검출방식에 기반을 두며, 이 검출방식은 PBS에서 반사되는 빛살과 투과되는 빛살 사이의 위상차가 $\pi$/4라는 실험결과로부터 달성된다. HIQI는 샘플 표면의 3차원 구조 뿐만 아니라 광학적 특성의 2차원 분포도 동시에 얻을 수 있다. (중략)
