In this paper, we discuss optical encryption and decryption considering wireless communication channels. In wireless communication systems, the wireless channel causes noise and fading effects of the transmitted information. Optical encryption technique such as double-random-phase encryption (DRPE) is used for encrypting transmitted data. When the encrypted data is transmitted, the information may be lost or distorted because there are a lot of factors such as channel noise, propagation fading, etc. Thus, using digital modulation and maximum likelihood (ML) detection, the noise and fading effects are mitigated, and the encrypted data is estimated well at the receiver. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report that considers the wireless channel characteristics of the optical encryption technique.

We study the characteristics of airflow and sound noise induced by disk rotation in optical disk drives. The characteristics of airflow around a rotating disk surrounded by various tray structures are numerically investigated using a commercial CFD program and then compared with experimental results. Sound pressure and intensity caused by the fluid-structure interactions in the CD/DVD-ROM drive are measured, and the effect of the ariflow on the sound noise and disk vibration is discussed. In order to reduce airflow-induced noise and vibration around the rotating disk, tray geometry is modified. Both numerical and experimental studies implemented with different tray models show that the improved tray model alters the characteristics of the disk-induced airflow, causing the reduction of the airflow-induced sound level.

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.

In this paper, a transimpedance optical receiver based on PIN/P-HEMT with cascoded input stage and inductor peaking technique was designed for several giga bits optical communication. Analysis of the receiver shows that cascoded input stage with inductor peaking increase bandwidth without sacrificing low frequence gain. The receiver achieved a low noise characteristic and maximally flat frequence response. It is shown that the 3-dB bandwidth of the designed receiver is 8.3 ㎓ and input equivalent noise current is as low as 16pA/√Hz to 10㎓.

It is analyzed how performance of phase-locked loop driven by photodetector current in optical receiver will be changed under the condition that Gaussian thermal noise, pattern noise and shot noise are present and the loop has the nonzero detuning frequency. The phase error variance cahnges with the circuit configuration and the produced noise models. The analyzed results are applied to the previously implemented 90.194Mbps optic system whose loop filter is the improved active noninverting 1-st order lag-lead type.

An experimental outdoor optical wireless data communication system with an optical filter in the presence of sunlight or artificial light is presented. For the efficient blocking of light noise outdoors, we employ an optical filter made of microlouver film on the top of the photo diode. This filter is designed to block any light noise incident from an angle higher than $30^{\circ}$ on the assumption that light noise does not face the photo diode horizontally. Outdoor experiments daytime with the optical filtering have been conducted. The experimental results demonstrate that the optical filter effectively blocks nearly all light noise incident from the specified angle or higher and more than 90% of the transmitted data packets are successfully received. The proposed outdoor visible light data communication can thus facilitate a practical free space outdoor optical wireless data transmission.

The outstanding mechanical property of optical fiber and the merits of acoustic emission sensing technique are unified for novel sensor system. The generated ultrasonic wave from piezoelectric generator are propagated along the optical fiber and also sensed. The propagated wave can be influence by external pressure on the optical fiber or environmental circumstance. The optical fiber sensor using ultrasonic wave has advantages compare with existing sensor system. In this study, the sensitivity of the optical fiber sensor is experimentally investigated. As the applications of the optical fiber sensor system using piezoelectric ultrasonic waves, the point load on the optical fiber is measured and the monitoring system for the void fraction of two phase flows is developed. The experimental results show the linear relationship between sensed voltage and void fraction.
