  • 최근 광 네트워크 기술은 놀라운 발전을 거듭하고 있다. 이러한 이유는 광섬유(optical fiber)가 일반 케이블에 비해서 탁월한 장점들이 있기 때문인데, 예를 들면 넓은 대역폭, 낮은 손실, 케이블간의 전자기적인 간섭(electromagnetic interference)에 자유로운 점, 그리고 특히 WDM(Wavelength Division Multiplexing)에 의한 네트워크 용량의 증가는 광섬유가 가지고 있는 가장 큰 매력일 것이다. (중략)

  • A Gigabit Ethernet upstream transmission over a WDM-PON employing remotely wavelength-locked Fabry-Perot lasers has been demonstrated. We have successfully demonstrated a WDM transmission of four Gigabit Ethernet channels with 100 GHz channel spacing over 30 km conventional single mode fiber. The measured f-factor was larger than 17.1 dB. We have also investigated the beating noise characteristics of a wavelength-locked Fabry-Perot laser and showed the remotely wavelength-locked Fabry-Perot laser suppresses the intensity noise of the incoherent light injected, which cause a 6.3 dB SNR improvement compared with that of the conventional spectrum-sliced light source.

  • We proposed an integrated wavelength-selective photodetector based on a grating-assisted contradirectional coupler and a graphene absorption layer for a coarse wavelength division multiplexing (CWDM) communication system. The center wavelength of the absorption spectrum of the proposed device can be tuned simply by changing the period of the grating, and the proposed device structure is suitable to forming a cascaded structure. Therefore, an array of the proposed device of different grating periods can be used for simultaneous wavelength demultiplexing and signal detection in a CWDM communication system. Our theoretical study showed that the designed device with a grating length of $500{\mu}m$ could have an absorption of 95.1%, an insertion loss of 0.2 dB, and a 3 dB bandwidth of 7.5 nm, resulting in a -14 dB crosstalk to adjacent CWDM channels. We believe that the proposed device array can provide a compact and economic solution to receiver implementation in the CWDM system by combining functions of wavelength demultiplexing and signal detection.

  • Packet-switched wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) ring networks have been extensively studied as solutions to the increasing amount of traffic in metropolitan area networks, which is widely expected to be a mix of unicast and multicast traffic. In this paper we study the fairness between unicasting and multicasting in slotted packet-switched WDM ring networks that employ a tunable transmitter and fixed tuned receiver at each node and a posteriori buffer selection. We find that single-step longest queue selection algorithm generally results in unfairness between unicasting and multicasting or a lilted relative priority for multicast vs. unicast traffic. We present the various virtual output queue structures and their performance.

  • It is essential to measure load transfer mechanism of pile to check the appropriateness of assumptions made for design purpose and to continuously monitor the behavior of pile foundation. Through many attempts to monitor the behavior of super-structure in civil engineering area using several optical fiber sensors have been made, application of optical fiber sensor technology on pile foundation has not been tried up to now. Load transfer of model piles during compression loading was measured by optical fiber sensors and compared with the measurement by strain gauges. Fiber Bragg Grating(FBG) sensor system was used since it has many advantages, such as easy multiplexing, high sensitivity, and simple fabrication. Besides the model pile tests, uniaxial tension test of steel bar and compression tests of mortar specimen were carried out to evaluate the performance of FBG sensors in embedded environments. The shift of refilming wavelength due to the strain in FBG sensor is converted to the strain at sensor location and the dependence between them is 1.28 pm/${\mu}$ strain. FBG sensors embedded in model pile showed a better survivability than strain gauges. Measured results of load transfer by both FBG sensors and strain gauges were similar, but FBG sensors showed a smoother trend than those by strain gauge. Based on the results of model pile test, it was concluded that the use of FBG sensor for strain measurement in pile has a great potential for the analysis of pile load transfer.

  • Survivability is a very important requirement for the deployment of broadband networks because out of service links can affect volumes of traffic even if it is a very short time. And the data paths of broadband networks, which are critical for traffic engineering, are always necessary to be well protected. The procedure of protection or restoration for a path is initiated when failure is detected within the working path. In order to minimize the influence on transmission quality caused by the failure of links and to provide a definite time for the recovery from the failure, the protection switching time (PST) should be carefully considered in the path arrangement. Several researches have been devoted to construct the protection and restoration schemes of data paths over dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) networks, however, there was rare research on the design of data paths with guaranteed protection switching time. In this paper, the PST-guaranteed scheme, which is based on the concept of short leap shared protection (SLSP), for the arrangement of data paths in DWDM networks is proposed. The proposed scheme provides an efficient procedure to determine a just-enough PST-guaranteed backup paths for a working path. In addition to selecting the PST-guaranteed path, the network cost is also considered in a heuristic manner. The experimental results demonstrate that the paths arranged by the proposed scheme can fully meet the desired PST and the required cost of the selected path is competitive with which of the shared path scheme.

  • 320km optical transmission link for 128 channel DWDM (dense wavelength-division-multiplexing) signals is simulated and fabricated. An optical fiber amplifier for the link is composed of a distributed Raman amplifier and dual C/L-band EDFAs which are optimized for the performances of an optical amplifier obtained from the simulation. Gain and NF of the optimized EDFAs are above 19dB and below 7.5dB, respectively. The resultant OSNRs (optical signal to noise ratios) of the link are average 25dB on each band.

  • To set up the arrays system of FBG(Fiber Bragg Grating) Hydrophone sensor and realize the multi-point signal detection for the wide scope underwater, using WDM(Wavelength Division Multiplexing) method and Passive band-pass filter system, underwater acoustic signal detection of the newly designed two FBG Transducers is successfully experimented. As a result of the experiment, it was possible each signal with different frequent signals is detected for the multi-point up to 1.3KHz in underwater. We can, therefore, prove the possibility on the system design of Hydrophone sensor arrays, using the newly made FBG Transducers.

  • In wavelength-division-multiplexing(WDM) networks a link failure may cause the failure of several high-bit-rate optical channels, thereby leading to large data loss. Recently, various protection and restoration mechanisms have been proposed to efficiently deal with this problem in mesh networks. Among them, dedicated path protection(DPP) is a promising candidate because of its ultra-fast restoration time and robustness. In this work we investigate the issue of planning and optimization of WDM networks with DPP. Integer linear programming(ILP), in particular, is one of the most common exact method to solve the design optimization problem for protected WDM networks. Traditional ILP formalizations to solve this problem rely on the classical flow or route formulation approaches, but both these approaches suffer from a excessively high computational burden. In this paper, we present a variable-aggregation method that has the ability of significantly reducing the complexity of the traditional flow formulation. We compare also the computational burden of flow formulation with variable aggregation both with the classical flow and route formulations. The comparison is carried out by applying the three alternative methods to the optimization of two case-study networks.
