This paper present a gain-clamped L-band EDFA based on reflecting back a portion of backward amplified spontaneous emission into the erbium-doped fiber section, utilizing a fiber Bra99 grating. By using FBG with R=66.1 and 99.9%, the gain is clamped at 15.1 and 14.3㏈, respectively, with a variation of less than 0.2㏈ for an input signal power as high as -5 ㏈m. However, a small noise figure penalty is obtained, which is the consequence of the gain clamping effect.

Fiber Bra99 grating (FBG) sensor, one of the fiber optic sensor (FOS) offers lots of advantages for structural health monitoring due to its multiplexing capability. Also, it is proper to measure the structural vibration with no mass concentration effect. In this paper, we constructed two sensor arrays composed of 9 FBG sensors for the vibration and mode sensing of a composites beam. For an accurate measurement of wavelength shift, a signal processing board with an electric circuit based on time-interval counting was developed. This sensor system showed a good resolution of dynamic strain (<10${\mu}{\varepsilon}$). Using this sensor system, dynamic strains at 9 points of composite beam was measured and strain measured mode shape of the beam was calculated from the acquired strains and compared with numerical results by ABAQUS.

In this paper, we propose and demonstrate a novel channel-selectable multichannel optical add/drop multiplexer consisting of a sampled fiber grating and tunable fiber Bra99 gratings. The device adds and drops not only single channel, but also any predetermined multiple channels simultaneously with low interchannel crosstalk by wavelength tuning as small as 0.5 nm or less. The interchannel crosstalk better than 27㏈ has been shown experimentally.

광섬유 센서 기술은 기존의 상용 센서의 어려움을 극복할 수 있어 전자기학 잡음과 전기 쇼크의 영향이 강한 폭발환경에서도 충분히 사용이 가능하다. 최근 이러한 장점들로 인해 여러 종류의 광섬유 센서들이 활발히 연구 개발되고 있다. 또한 비파괴검사/평가 분야로써 구조 건전성 감시를 위한 광섬유 센서의 다양한 적용 연구 분야가 존재한다. 그러나 로드셀과 같은 종류의 센서들은 상대적으로 상용화가 미흡한 실정이다. 본 논문에서는 광섬유 브래그 격자 센서를 사용한 광섬유 로드셀을 보여준다. 본 로드셀의 형상은 링크타입이고, 세 개의 광섬유 브래그 격자 센서를 사용하여 세 지점의 변형률을 각기 측정한다 특히 이들 변형률은 온도와 같은 동상 잡음을 제거하기 위해 차동법을 사용하여 신호처리 된다. 더 나아가 본 로드셀의 감도, 선형성 그리고 해상도를 인장실험을 통해 성공적으로 검증하였다.

본 논문에서는 광 가입자망에서 동시 가입자의 수를 늘이는 방법 중의 하나인 광 CDMA방식에서 PN부호를 사용한 FBG 형광 CDMA에 대하여 광원의 spectral power distortion에 의한 특성변화를 수치적으로 분석하였다. 코드의 길이가 길어질수록 두 채널간의 간섭은 작아지며. 코드길이 만큼의 가입자수가 동시에 사용되기 위하여 광원의 spectral power distortion이 최소 한 15%이내이어야 함을 확인하였다. 그리고 15% 이상의 spectral power distortion에서는 동시 가입자의 수가 급격히 감소함을 알 수 있었다. 즉. PN 부호를 사용한 FBG형 CDMA를 이용하여 초고속 광 가입자망을 구성하는데 있어서 광원의 spectral power distortion이 출력특성에 매우 중요함을 알 수 있었다.

This paper describes applications of cure monitoring techniques by using embedded fiber optic strain sensors, which are extrinsic Fabry-Perot interoferometric (EFPI) and/or fiber Bra99 grating (FBG) sensors, to three kinds of molding methods of autoclave, FW and RTM molding methods. In these applications, internal strain of high-temperature curing resin was monitored by EFPI sensors. From theme experimental results, it was shown that strain caused by thermal shrink at cooling stage could be measured well. In addition, several specific matters to these molding methods were considered. As thor an autoclave molding of unidirectional FRP laminates, it was confirmed that off-axis strain of unidirectional FRP could be monitored by EFPI sensors. As for FW molding using room-temperature (RT) cured resin, it was found that the strain outputs from EFPI sensors represented curing shrinkage as well as thermal strain and the convergence meant finish of cure reaction. It was also shown that this curing shrinkage should be evaluated with consideration on logarithmic change in stiffness of matrix resin. As for a RTM melding, both EFPI and FBC sensors were employed to measure strain. The results showed that FBG sensors hale also good potential for strain monitoring at cooling stage, while the non-uniform thermal residual strain of textile affected the FBG spectrum after molding. This study has proven that embedded fiber optic strain sensors hale practical ability of cure monitoring of FRP. However, development of automatic installation methods of sensors remains as a problem to be solved for applications to practical products.
