주파수 영역 광 CDMA방식에 의한 광센서 네트워크에서 접속 가능한 광센서의 수량을 증가시키기 위하여 이득 포화 증폭기를 사용하여 액세스 잡음을 억압한다. 시뮬레이션 분석을 통하여 제안 광센서 네트워크에서 광센서의 스위핑 주파수를 10MHz이하로 설정하고 이득 포화증폭기의 이득을 증가시키면 엑세스잡음이 억압되고, 동시에 접속 가능한 광센서의 수가 종래의 방식에 비해 대폭으로 개선되는 것을 알 수 있다. 요구 SNR이 20dB이고 광센서의 스위핑 주파수가 10MHz일 경우 이득 포화 증폭기의 이득을 10dB로 설정하면 동시에 접속 가능한 광센서의 수가 종래의 방식에 비해 4배 이상으로 개선되는 것을 알 수 있다.

양극성수신기와 무선통신에서 널리 사용되고 있는 PN(pseudo random noise) 부호를 수정하여 적용시킨 광 CDMA 방식을 사용한 광센서 네트워크를 제안한다. 광 센서 네트워크에서 특성을 수치적으로 분석하였다. 센서사이와 광 CDMA의 디코더에 광섬유형지연기를 사용하여 광 CDMA의 인코더와 디코더간 동기를 맞추고, 광지연기의 지연을 PN 부호의 칩폭보다 크게 하면 센서간 간섭잡음을 완전히 제거할 수 있다. 광 신호간 비트 잡음이 잡음전력을 지배하기 때문에 광센서 네트워크에 접속할 수 있는 광 센서의 수를 증가시키기 위하여 광신호간 비트 잡음을 억압하여야 한다.

This paper introduces a technology for robust and low maintenance cost sensor network capable to detect accelerations below a micro-g in a wide frequency bandwidth (above 1,000 Hz). Sensor networks with such performance are critical for navigation, seismology, acoustic sensing, and for the health monitoring of civil structures. The approach is based on the fabrication of an array of high sensitivity accelerometers, each utilizing Fabry-Perot cavity with wavelength-dependent reflectivity to allow embedded optical detection and serialization. The unique feature of the approach is that no local power source is required for each individual sensor. Instead one global light source is used, providing an input optical signal which propagates through an optical fiber network from sensor-to-sensor. The information from each sensor is embedded onto the transmitted light as an intrinsic wavelength division multiplexed signal. This optical "rainbow" of data is then assessed providing real-time sensing information from each sensor node in the network. This paper introduces the Fabry-Perot based accelerometer and examines its critical features, including the effects of imperfections and resolution estimates. It then presents serialization techniques for the creation of systems of arrayed sensors and examines the effects of serialization on sensor response. Finally, a fabrication process is proposed to create test structures for the critical components of the device, which are dynamically characterized.

In this article, a smart multifunctional optical system-on-a-chip (SOC) sensor platform is presented and its application for fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensor interrogation in optical sensor networks is investigated. The smart SOC sensor platform consists of a superluminescent diode as a broadband source, a tunable microelectromechanical system (MEMS) based Fabry-P$\acute{e}$rot filter, photodetectors, and an integrated microcontroller for data acquisition, processing, and communication. Integrated with a wireless sensor network (WSN) module in a compact package, a smart optical sensor node is developed. The smart multifunctional sensor platform has the capability of interrogating different types of optical fiber sensors, including Fabry-P$\acute{e}$rot sensors and Bragg grating sensors. As a case study, the smart optical sensor platform is demonstrated to interrogate multiplexed FBG strain sensors. A time domain signal processing method is used to obtain the Bragg wavelength shift of two FBG strain sensors through sweeping the MEMS tunable Fabry-P$\acute{e}$rot filter. A tuning range of 46 nm and a tuning speed of 10 Hz are achieved. The smart optical sensor platform will open doors to many applications that require high performance optical WSNs.

In this paper, a remote submersion warning system based on multi-mode optical fiber(MMF) sensors and a wireless sensor network(WSN) are proposed. To improve the reliability and stability of the sensors, the dual optical fiber sensors combined to the optical coupler are demonstrated. A slave zigbee as a wireless sensor module was used as a platform to monitor and record the signal from the MMF sensors and then transmits these information to a master zigbee wirelessly. The monitoring system running the $LabVIEW^{(R)}$ software was connected to the internet to support the short message service(SMS) through extensible markup language(XML) web service. No matter where the managers are, they can always receive the real-time remote-monitoring data for safety check.

바닷속과 같은 수중에서 1개의 광섬유에 다량의 배열형 광센서를 접속하여 광범위한 영역에서의 원격 측정도 가능한 광 CDMA 기반 광섬유 센서를 이용한 음파탐지 시스템을 제안한다. 그리고 제안 시스템에서 잡음특성을 이론적으로 분석하고 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션에 의하여 그 결과를 분석한다. 광 CDMA 기반 광섬유 센서를 이용한 음파탐지 시스템에서 센서의 측정 시간을 증가시키면 종래의 WDMA 방식을 적용할 경우 보다 많은 광센서가 접속 가능한 것을 알 수 있다.

The submersion monitoring system based on a reflective side-polished optical fiber submersion sensor with an optical fiber mirror was shown to be an effective alarm system with remote monitoringwhen the drainage capacity of a common utility duct is exceeded due to heavy rainfall. The proposed sensor was connected to an existing installed optical fiber network at a height of 250mm in a common utility duct, and then tested under sample materials(distilled water, river water, sea water, foul water, muddy water, petroleum, edible oil) at a distance of 1km from the sensor for remote sensing. In experiments, the proposed real-time sensor system reduced maintenance cost and improved monitoring efficiency by using a reflection-type side-polished optical fiber submersion sensor efficient for remote monitoring of a common utility duct.

This paper demonstrated the performance of a palladium wire hydrogen sensor based on a fiber Bragg grating as a means of developing a quasi-distributed hydrogen sensor network capable of operating at cryogenic temperatures. The new approach employing a fiber Bragg grating based palladium hydrogen sensor described in this study is advantageous over other traditional hydrogen sensors because of the multiplexing capability of fiber Bragg gratings. The sensitivity of the hydrogen sensor at room temperature is approximately 2.5 times that of the hydrogen sensor at cryogenic temperatures.
