A novel mode analysis method and differential mode delay measurement technique for a multimode optical fiber based on optical frequency domain reflectometry has been proposed for the first time. We have used a conventional OFDR with a tunable external cavity laser and a Michelson interferometer. A few-mode optical multimode fiber was prepared to test our proposed measurement technique. The differential mode delay (DMD) of the sample fiber was measured to be 16.58 ps/m with a resolution of 1.5 ps/m. We have also compared the OFDR measurement results with those obtained using a traditional time-domain measurement method.

PZT형 파장가변 필터를 이용하여 파장스윕(wavelength-swept) 광원을 구성할 때 발진파장의 변화율을 일정하게 하려면 필터의 이력(hysteresis)특성을 알아야 한다. 이력특성을 무시하고 필터를 구동할 경우 파장스윕 광원을 사용하는 optical frequency domain reflectometry(OFDR) 시스템의 분해능이 떨어진다. 광스펙트럼 분석기(OSA)를 이용하여 필터의 이력특성을 측정할 수도 있지만 측정시간이 너무 길고 실제 구동조건에서의 이력특성은 측정할 수 없다는 문제가 있어 실제 구동조건에서 필터의 이력특성을 고속으로 측정할 수 있는 OFDR의 원리에 기초한 이력 측정법을 제시하였다. 파장스윕 광원과 간섭계, 신호처리 장치, 그리고 PC 프로그램으로 구성된 고속 이력측정장치를 구현하고, 이를 사용하여 필터 구동조건에서의 이력특성을 측정하였다. 마지막으로 측정된 이력특성을 파장스윕광원의 구동에 적용하여 선형적 파장변화를 얻음으로써 새로운 이력측정법의 유효성을 검증하였다.

We demonstrate a novel OFDR system with compactness and short measurement time based on the use of a wavelength-swept mode-locked fiber laser. The optical source uses an intra-cavity tunable Fabry-Perot filter as a tuning element. The fiber laser sweeps 20 nm in less than 10 ms. Spatial resolution of 100 fm and total measurement range of several centimeters are demonstrate

Fabrication and pakaging method for low delve voltage and 10Gbps Ti diffused waveguide LiNbO$_3$ optical intensity modulator are described. Optical waveguides were prepared by conventionaly electron-beam evaporation and Ti-indiffusion into Z-cut plate LiNbO$_3$. Traveling-wave electrodes were used for obtaining the wideband frequency response and impedance matching. Microwave effective index and characteristic impedance measured by time domain reflectometry and compared with the calculated value by conformal mapping. The characteristics of 10Gbps modulator at the 1550nm wavelength are as follows : perfect modulation voltage Is about 5V, optical insertion loss Is about 5dB, 3-dB bandwidth is 10GHz, and characteristic impedance is about 50$\Omega$.

The deformation coordination between a rock/soil mass and an optical sensing cable is an important issue for accurate deformation monitoring. A stress-controlled triaxial apparatus was retrofitted by introducing an optical fiber into the soil specimen. High spatial resolution optical frequency domain reflectometry (OFDR) was used for monitoring the strain distribution along the axial direction of the specimen. The results were compared with those measured by a displacement meter. The strain measured by the optical sensing cable has a good linear relationship with the strain calculated by the displacement meter for different confining pressures, which indicates that distributed optical fiber sensing technology is feasible for soil deformation monitoring. The performance of deformation coordination between the sensing cable and the soil during unloading is higher than that during loading based on the strain transfer coefficients. Three hypothetical strain distributions of the triaxial specimen are proposed, based on which theoretical models of the strain transfer coefficients are established. It appears that the parabolic distribution of specimen strain should be more reasonable by comparison. Nevertheless, the strain transfer coefficients obtained by the theoretical models are higher than the measured coefficients. On this basis, a strain transfer model considering slippage at the interface of the sensing cable and the soil is discussed.
