  • To solve the cost problem of micro/picocell system, the fiber-optic cellular system was proposed. In this system, all channel elements are managed in Central Station, not in each base station. Also, all channel elements in a system can be dynamically assigned when the Spectrum Delivery Switch (SDS) is used. In this paper, we propose and analyze a new intergroup handoff scheme in the fiber-optic cellular system. The proposed scheme supports handoff with keeping current channel. Performance is evaluated with respect to the blocking probability and the handoff refused probability in both systems with SDS and without SDS. The numerical results show that the proposed scheme provides better performance than conventional soft handoff scheme.

  • Two multiple access protocols are proposed for a multichannel WDM optical fibre local area network or metropolitan area network in which users are interconnected using a passive star topology. Each user has a single tunable transmitter and a single tunable receiver. A transmitter sends a control packet before its data packet transmission so that its intended receivers can tune to the proper data channel wavelength. The maximum throughput of the proposed protocols are independent of the effective normalized propagation delay which may include the transmitter and receiver tuning times and the processing delays. The maximum throughputs of the protocols are analyzed and compared with those of the existing ones by numerical examples. The message delay of the R- Aloha/synchronous N-server switch protocol which is suitable for the queued users is also analyzed.

  • 광스위치는 광통신 및 광교환 시스템에서 광 경로 제어를 위한 소자로써 누화 특성이 좋고, 스위칭 시 소모 전력이 작아야 한다. 프로텍션 스위칭(circuit protection switching)시에는 아무런 전력 소모 없이 초기 경로를 가진 스위치가 바람직하다. 기존의 전력 소모 없이 초기 경로를 가지는 스위치는 실리카 물질과 비대칭적 X-분기 광도파로를 사용하여 구현되었다$^{(1)}$ . 그러나 실리카 스위치는 열광학 계수가 작기 때문에 스위칭 할 때 전력 소모가 큰 단점이 있다. 최근에 열광학 스위치는 폴리머를 재료로 하여 많이 제작되었다$^{(2).(3)}$ . 폴리머의 열광학 계수는 실리카에 비해 10배 정도 더 크다. 대부분의 폴리머 열광학 스위치는 대칭적 Y-분기 광도파로를 사용하여 제작되었기 때문에 모든 스위칭 상태에서 전력 소모가 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 4개의 비대칭적 Y-분기 광도파로가 직렬(cascade)로 연결된 구조를 갖는2$\times$2 열광학 스위치를 제안한다. 이 스위치는 전력 소모 없이 초기 경로를 가지며, 누화 특성을 향상시킨 구조이다.

  • In this paper, we propose a new priority Optical Burst Switching (OBS) protocol based on a hop count, which can provide an efficient utilization in optical wireless networks. Under several legacy schemes, a switch drops the burst with a shorter time among ones regardless of its traversed hop count. As a result, the dropped burst that have been traversed more hops might cause to waste bandwidth than the one traversed a few hops. Noting that this problem, we propose a Just Enough Time (JET) with a hop count scheme which can reduce the wasted bandwidth by prioritizing the burst traversed more hops over others. The simulation results shows that the proposed scheme has more advantages over the legacy schemes in terms of the burst blocking probability and the link utilization.

  • In this paper, we proposed an optical true time-delay (TTD) feeder system for phased array antennas (PAAs). The system possesses high-speed beam scan capability since, in this scheme, different lengths of fiber delay-lines are selected by optical 2${\times}$2 MEMS switches at high speed. An optical TTD capable of beam scanning in one of eight different directions has been built for 10 GHz linear PAA systems. Experimental results on time delay measurements show that the maximum time delay error is less than 0.2 ps corresponding to a scan angle error of less than 0.84o. We have also designed a 10 GHz linear PAA composed of eight micro-strip patch antenna elements driven by the proposed TTD, and the radiation patterns of this PAA have been analyzed by simulation.

  • The single crystal of LiTaO3 is well known eletro-optic material as well as the piezoelectric one applied to SAW filter. LiTaO3 has large electro-optic effects, so applied to optical switch, acosto-optic deflector, and optical memory device using photorefractive effects. The crystal growth of SAW-grade LiTaO3 has been studied many aspects, but there is no detail research about optic-grade crystal growth. The conditions of optic-grade LiTaO3 single crystal are as below. The optical transmittance must be over 75%, and axial and radial concentratiom uniformity below 1%. The variation of Curie temperature depending on Li/Ta ratio must be also below 2$^{\circ}C$ and no internal no internal cracks and defects. Because of the limitation of crystal quality, the growing of optic-grade LiTaO3 single crystal is very difficult compared with the growing of SAW-grade. In this research, upper conditions of optic-grade single crystal was investigated after growing of 1 inch diameter and 1.5 inch length LiTaO3 single crystal having no internal cracks and defects using Czochralski method. Curie temperature was determined with DSC and measuring capacitance and lattice parameter was calculated about the grown crystal and ceramic powder samples of various Li/Ta ratio. The result of Tc variation was below 1.2$^{\circ}C$ all over the grown crystal, so it is confirmed that LiTaO3 was grown under congruent melting composition having optical homogeniety. Also, the optical transmittance was about 78%, which was sufficient for optical device.

  • The key issues in high power, high energy applications such as electromagnetic launchers include safety, reliability, flexibility, efficiency, compactness, and cost. To explore some of the issues, a control scheme for a large current wave-forming was designed, built and experimentally verified using a 2.4MJ pulse power system (PPS). The PPS was made up of eight capacitors bank unit, each containing six capacitors connected in parallel. Therefore there were 48 capacitors in total, with ratings of 22kV and 50kJ each. Each unit is charged through a charging switch that is operated by air pressure. For discharging each unit has a triggered vacuum switch (TVS) with ratings of 200kA and 250kV. Hence, flexibility of a large current wave-forming can be obtained by controlling the charging voltage and the discharging times. The whole control system includes a personal computer(PC), RS232 and RS485 pseudo converter, electric/optical signal converters and eight 80C196KC micro-controller based capacitor-bank module(CBM) controllers. Hence, the PC based controller can set the capacitor charging voltages and the TVS trigger timings of each CBM controller for the current wave-forming. It also monitors and records the system status data. We illustrated that our control scheme was able to generate the large current pulse flexibly and safely by experiments. The our control scheme minimize the use of optical cables without reducing EMI noise immunity and reliability, this is resulting in cost reduction. Also, the reliability was increased by isolating ground doubly, it reduced drastically the interference of the large voltage pulse induced by the large current pulse. This paper contains the complete control scheme and details of each subsystem unit.
