연산자 분리 시영역 모델을 이용하여 광섬유 커플러 ADM(add-drop multiplexer)의 필터링 효과를 분석하였다. 이 모델은 방향성 결합기나 브래그 격자를 포함하는 소자의 해석에 유용하다. 본 논문에서는 비대칭 구조를 고려했으며 결합계수, 코어의 반경, 개구수, 굴절율 변조 등의 파라미터를 이용하여 최적의 필터링 효과를 얻기 위한 구조를 설계하였다.

In this study, an experiment was performed to monitor the two-dimensional shape of a cantilever composite structure using fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors. To monitor the shape of a composite structure, a deflection equation developed by NASA was applied and a composite beam attached to three FBG sensors was used. In the experiment, the shape of the composite beam was successfully estimated and an error was evaluated by comparing a real deflection. The error increased with real deflection; therefore, it was compensated by using the linear relationship between the error and the real deflection. After compensating the error, the measured deflection shows good agreement with the real deflection. Finally, the experiment shows that the FBG sensor and the deflection equation are suitable for monitoring the deflection curve of the beam structure with compensation of the error.

We fabricated a sensor head which consists of spliced different-diameter fiber gratings for discrimination between strain and temperature. Because the fibers were drawn from the same preform, their temperature characteristics were the same but not for strain sensitivities which are inversely proportional to fibers cross-sectional areas. In measurement range of 0-1500$\mu$strain and 20-10$0^{\circ}C$, we could obtain, by using the matrix calculation, the unknown physical quantities within 10% of calculation error compared with the micrometer and thermocouple values. To improve the strain measurement accuracy, we suggest a new, novel method which deploys an unbalanced fiber Mach-Zehnder interferometer. This new signal processing technique converts the strain information to interference signal amplitude variation, temperature-independently. we obtained measurement accuracy nearly 80 times better than that obtainable with the conventional optical spectrum analyzer usage.

In this paper, a photonic RF true-time delay based on a partially side-polished fiber Bragg grating with heating electrode has been proposed and fabricated. It features continuous voltage-controlled operation, requiring no mechanical perturbation and no moving parts. For an RF signal carried over an optical signal, the time delay has been obtained by controlling the voltage applied to the electrode and thus adjusting its reflection positions from the fiber grating via the thermooptic effect. The achieved time delay is about 100 ps with the electrical power consumption of 280 mW.

Long Period Gratings (LPG) is currently receiving considerable attention because of their consistent measuring results fur pressure, temperature, strain and flow. LPG is easier to prepare and has a high sensitivity compared with Fiber Bragg Gratings (FBG). In addition, this kind of optical fiber sensors could be used for implementations in various structures. In this paper, LPG was used to monitor in situ the resin flow and the curing process in VARTM (Vacuum Assisted Resin Transfer. Molding). In order to demonstrate the effectiveness of the method, FBG is inserted into the glass mat to monitor the resin flow using optical spectrum analyzer (OSA). The curing reactions in VARTM are also observed using the same method. From the results, the attenuation wavelength shift and the loss change of attenuation band can be obtained from the status of the RTM (Resin Transfer Molding) sample owing to the internal variations of the .effective index, temperature, and pressure. It is shown that the proposed LPG is more effective in monitoring the curing reaction than FBG.

Various studies have been conducted on the structural health monitoring using optical fiber. Optical fibers can be used to measure multiple and distributed strain. Among the optical fiber sensors, FBG sensor has advantages of dynamic response measurement and high precision, but the number of measurement points is limited. Distributed fiber sensors, represented by distributed Brillouin sensors, usually have more than 1000 measurement points, but the low sampling rate makes dynamic measurements impossible. In this study, a hybrid nerve sensor system using only the advantages of the FBG sensor and the distributed Brillouin sensor has been proposed. Laboratory experiments were performed to verify the proposed system, and the accuracy and reproducibility were verified by comparing with commercial sensors. Applying the proposed system, dynamic response ambient measurements are used to evaluate the global state of the structure. When an abnormal condition is detected, the local condition of the structure is evaluated by static response measurement using the distributed measurement system. The proposed system can be used for efficient structural health monitoring.

최근 광섬유의 전송 용량을 효율적으로 극대화하기 위한 방안으로서 파장 분할 다중화 (WDM: Wavelength Division Multiplexing) 방식의 광통신 시스템이 제안되어 사용되고 있다. WDM 시스템에서는 각 채널 (channel) 마다 각기 다른 파장의 광신호가 할당되어 있기 때문에, 여러 파장이 다중화된 광신호에서 원하는 파장의 광신호를 선택하기 위해서는 파장 선택 필터 (wavelength selective filter) 가 필요하다. 격자 보조 동방향 결합기 (GACC: Grating-Assisted Codirectional Coupler) 는 전파 상수(propagation constant) 가 서로 다른 두 도파로 사이에서의 광파워 교환이 파장에 의존하는 특성을 가지고 있기 때문에 WDM 시스템에 응용될 파장 선택 필터로서 많은 연구가 되어 왔다$^{(1),(2)}$ .
