In this letter, we will evaluate the performance degradation of a 40 km high-speed (40 Gb/s) optical system, induced by optical fiber variations of the chromatic dispersion induced by temperature changes. The chromatic dispersion temperature sensitivity will be estimated based on the signal quality parameters.

Optical 60 ㎓ millimeter-wave (MMW) signal generation is demonstrated using the sideband injection-locking method in the master/slave configuration, where two slave lasers are locked to two among several side-bands produced by the direct rf-modulation of a master laser. These two locked slave laser outputs beat against each other in the photo-detector and produce stable and very pure 60 ㎓ signals.

In this paper, we present a photonic approach for generating highly stable coherent sub-terahertz (THz) signals for wireless communications. As proof-of-concept we transmit data at 100 GHz carrier frequency using on-off keying modulation and heterodyne detection. The sub-THz carrier signals are generated by photo-mixing two optical carrier signals at different frequencies, extracted from an optical frequency comb. We introduce a novel system to stabilize the phase of the optical carrier signals. Error-free transmission is successfully achieved up to a bit rate of 8.5 Gbit/s at 100 GHz.

With the need of high-speed and mass data transmission, optical communication system requires the growth of optical components. Waveguide photodiodes(WGPDs) are introduced and circuit models of WGPD and submodule are required for the optical receiver application. In this paper, the circuit models of WGPD and submodule are investigated and modeling results are derived by PEEC methodology. The s-parameters are measured for the test structures of WGPD and submodule and the equivalent circuit models are examined. The modeling results agreed well with the measured data and can present a reasonable physical representation.

A cholesteric liquid crystal (CLC) system exhibits one-dimensional (1-D) Photonic bandgap (PBG) characteristics in the transmission spectrum through a selective Bragg reflection. Related to the nonlinear optical (NLO) processes in a PBG structure of CLC, the inherent periodicity has been exploited to Phase-match the fundamental and the harmonic waves through the umklapp Processes. Near bandgap edges of a CLC, harmonic generations have been shown to be enhanced significantly through the field localization. (omitted)

In this paper, in order to analyze property of frequency response in microphone using optical sensor, acousto-optic sensor system has been implemented. The capacitance microphone and fiber-optic transmission path type fiber-optic microphone (FOM) have weaknesses in directivity, size, weight, and price. However suggested optical microphone can be constituted by cheap devices, so it has many benefits like small size, light weight, high directivity, etc. Head part of optical microphone which is suggested in this paper is movable back and forth by sound pressure with the attached reflection plate. Operating point has also been determined by measuring the response characteristics. The choosing the point, which has maximum linearity and sensitivity has changing the distance between optical head and vibrating plate. We measured the output of the O/E transformed signal of the optical microphone while frequency of sound signal is changed using sound measurement /analysis program, "Smaart Live" and "USBPre", which are based on PC, and compared the result from an existing capacitance microphone. The measured optical microphone showed almost similar output characteristics as those of the compared condenser microphone, and its bandwidth performance was about 4 kHz at up to 3 dB.

This paper reports on the simulation study of gigabit-capable Passive Optical networks (GPON) using WDM focused on single light source per each channel, and proposes using 1550nm VCSEL for light sources. Proposed system uses high speed direct-modulated light sources, in which the merit is able to maintain a low loss. to support broad bandwidth, and to lower network configuration cost. We conformed simulation study on the transmission of the downstream 2.5Gbit/s, upstream 1.25Gbit/s, 622Mbit/s which was recommended by ITU-T G.984.1. We measured the transmission margin and examined the feasibility of proposed system.

This paper presents a novel shore-to-sea maritime data transmission system based on time-code diversity, using visible light in maritime environments to overcome the limitations of conventional maritime wireless communications. The proposed system is primarily comprised of existing LED-based lighthouses and maritime transceivers (marine beacons, buoys, etc.), and thus is considered cost-effective in terms of implementation. We first analyze maritime visible-light communications on the basis of the unique properties of a maritime environment, i.e. sea states (wave height, wind speed, etc.), plus atmospheric turbulence, using the Pierson-Moskowitz (PM) and JONSWAP (JS) spectrum models. It is found that the JS model outperforms the PM model, and that the coverage distance depends on the LED power and sea states. To combat maritime fading conditions that significantly degrade performance and coverage distance, we propose a time-code diversity (TCD) scheme in which the delayed versions of the original data are retransmitted using orthogonal Walsh codes. This TCD scheme is found to be superior, in that it offers three orders of magnitude in terms of BER performance, compared to a conventional (non-TCD) transmission scheme. The proposed scheme is robust and efficient in overcoming the effect of impairments present in maritime environments with a BER of approximately $10^{-5}$and a data rate of 100 Kbps at a distance of 1 km.

In this paper, an 1.5Gbit/s wireless data transmission system using the carrier frequency of 300 GHz band was implemented. The RF front-end was composed of schottky diode sub-harmonic mixer, frequency tripler, and horn antennas for transmitter and receiver, respectively. The LO frequencies of sub-harmonic mixer are 150GHz for transmit chain and 156GHz for receive chain. The ASK(Amplitude Shift Keying) modulation was used in the transmitter and the envelope detection method was used in the heterodyne receiver. The conversion loss of sub-harmonic mixer and implementation system loss were measured to be 9.8dB and 1.2dB, respectively. The 1.5Gbit/s video signal with HD-SDI format was transmitted over wireless distance of 40cm without optical lens(4.2m with optical lens) and displayed on HDTV at the transmitted average output power of $20{\mu}W$.

In this paper, we investigated the degree of compensation for WDM channel signal distortion due to chromatic dispersion, self phase modulation (SPM) and cross phase modulation (XPM) as a function of transmission length using mid-span spectral inversion (MSSI) compensation method. The considered system is $3{\times}40$ Gbps intensity modulation direct detection (IM/DD) WDM transmission system. This system has highly nonlinear dispersion shifted fiber (HNL-DSF) as a nonlinear medium in optical phase conjugator (OPC). We confirmed that the transmission length is more increased by applying MSSI to distorted signal due to chromatic dispersion, SPM and XPM as dispersion coefficient of fiber becomes higher. And the compensation degree of distorted WDM channels due to chromatic dispersion, SPM and XPM becomes better stable as dispersion coefficient of fiber becomes higher.
