현상론적인 비선형 이득 포화 효과가 연속 파장 가변시 다전극 DBR 레이저의 잡음 특성에 미치는 영향을 이론적으로 연구하였다. 광전송선 모델에 종 방향으로의 자발적 방출 분포에 의한 향상계수 K와 비선형 이득 포화 효과를 고려하여 연속 파장 가변시 출력의 감소에 따른 상대적 세기 잡음과 주파수 잡음 특성을 분석하였다. 수동부분의 주입전류의 증가에 따라 자발적 방출률은 증가하며, 이에 비례하여 상대적 세기 잡음, 주파수 잡음 및 선폭은 증가한다. 현상론적인 비선형 이득 포화 효과는 상대적 세기 잡음 및 주파수 잡음 특성에 큰 영향을 주지만 선폭은 오히려 감소한다.

EDFA는 광전송시스템에서 광섬유상에 전파되는 신호가 광섬유의 손실로 인해 약해지게 되는데 미약해진 신호의 광세기를 키워주는 증폭기로서 널리 사용되고 있다. EDFA의 증폭기작을 주요 인자를 가지고 분석함으로써 그 특성을 이해하고 이를 토대로 EDFA 설계시 유용한 기준으로 삼고자 한다. 또한 광전송시스템에서의 EDFA는 자연방출광잡음으로 인해 수신단에서 신호대잡음비를 악화시켜 전송오율을 증가시키게 되는데 이를 억제하기 위한 동작조건 즉 잡음지수의 최소화하는 동작조건에 대해서 논하고자 한다.

The impact of the amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) on the gain recovery time of a bulk semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) is investigated. The gain-recovery time is obtained by determining the time evolution of the gain, carrier density, and ASE in an SOA, after the propagation of a short pump pulse and continuous-wave (CW) probe of gain dynamics. In the simulation, a wide-band-semiconductor model, which can be characterized by the material gain coefficient over a wide wavelength range, is used, because the gain bandwidth of a practical SOA is very wide. The pump pulse and counterpropagating CW probe field are considered in the simulation, with the ASE noise spectrum equally divided.

In this paper, we analyze the performance of the all-optical multihop radio over a free space optical (RoFSO) communication system with amplify-and-forward (AF) relays under varying weather conditions. The proposed channel model considers the propagation loss, attenuation and atmospheric fading modeled by the Gamma-Gamma (GG) distribution. Both the amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) noise in the all-optical relays and the background noise projected onto receiver apertures have been considered in the analysis. The lower bound analytical expressions for the end-to-end bit error rate (BER) and outage probability are derived for the multihop system employing the all-optical relays with the full channel state information (CSI). Meanwhile, the exact results for BER and outage probability are obtained via Monte Carlo simulation. Results indicate the performance of the proposed system will be improved by the multihop transmission technology. For a fixed number of relays, the BER and outage probability will be increased with the deterioration of the weather conditions.

In this study, the use of a continuous-wave (CW) supercontinuum (SC) seeded by an erbium-doped fiber's amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) for optical-coherence tomography imaging is experimentally demonstrated. It was shown, by taking an in-depth image of a human tooth sample, that due to the smooth, flat spectrum and long-term stability of the proposed CW SC, it can be readily applied to the spectral-domain optical-coherence tomography system. The relative-intensity noise level and spectral bandwidth of the CW SC are also experimentally analyzed as a function of the ASE beam power.

The external feedback effect on the relative intensity noise (RIN) characteristics of blue InAlGaN laser diode has been analyzed taking into account the spontaneous emission noise and the injection current for the high frequency modulation. A Langevin diffusion model was exploited to characterize its relative intensity noise. The simulation parameters were quantitatively evaluated from the optical gain properties of the InAlGaN multiple quantum well active regions by using the multiband Hamiltonian for the strained wurtzite crystals. The extracted parameters were then applied to the rate equations taking into account the external feedback and the high frequency modulation current. The RIN characteristics were investigated to optimize the low frequency laser diode noise characteristics.

A low noise erbium doped fiber amplifier for optical preamplification has been demonstrated. The amplifier incoporates an optical isolator in its midway to prevent decrease of population inversion at the input port due to backward traveling amplified spontaneous emission. Then, high gain and low noise can be achieved simultaneously. A small signal gain of 34dB and a noise figure of 5.5dB have been achieved. With this amplifier, we obtained a receiver sensitivity of -39.7dBm with back to back configuration and -39.3dBm with 47km normal fiber for 10$^{-9}$BER at 2.5Gbps direct modulated optical signal.

본 논문은 기존 표준 단일모드 광섬유 링크를 통하여 초고속 광신호의 장거리 전송이 가능하도록 분산보상 광섬유를 이용한 최적 분산보상 기법에 기반을 둔 전송링크 설계 방법을 제안하였다. 제안한 방법에서는 광섬유의 비선형성에서 비롯되는 자기위상변조(Self-Phase Modulation: SPM)와 광증폭기에서 발생하는 증폭자연방출(Amplified Spontaneous Emission : ASE) 잡음에 대하여 증폭기간 거리와 중계기간 거리를 최적화함으로써 전송신호 속도에 따른 최대 전송거리를 제시하였다. 또한 주어진 증폭기간 거리와 중계기간 거리에 대하여 ASE 잡음과 SPM의 효과의 균형적 관계로부터 최적의 입력 신호전력의 범위가 있음을 제시하였다.

A large incoherent crosstalk (IC) caused by amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) noise power from Tx-disabled optical network units and a differential path loss has been shown to degrade upstream transmission performance in time-division multiplexing passive optical networks. This paper considers the IC-induced power penalty of an upstream signal both in an XG-PON and in a TWDM-PON. We investigate the degradation of the extinction ratio and relative intensity noise through a simulation and experiments. For the XG-PON case, we observe a 9.6 dB difference in the level of ASE noise power from Tx-disabled ONUs (hereafter known simply as ASE noise) between our result and the ITU-T XG-PON PMD recommendation. We propose an optical filtering method to mitigate an IC-induced power penalty. In the TWDM-PON case, the IC-induced power penalty is naturally negligible because the ASE noise is filtered by a wavelength multiplexer at the optical line terminal. The results provide design guidelines for the level of ASE noise in both XG-PONs and TWDM-PONs.
