Numerical Analysis of Thermal Dependence of the Spectral Response of Polymer Optical Fiber Bragg Gratings

Hisham K. Hisham

Pages: 85-95

PDF Full Text
Abstract

The thermal dependence of the spectral response (i.e. transmission, reflection and time delay ( τ r ) responses) of uniform polymer optical fiber (POF) Bragg gratings has been investigated. In addition to the temperature dependence, the effects of grating strength (kL g ) and fiber index modulation ( ∆ n) have been investigated. Besides high capability of tunable wavelength due to the unique large and negative thermo-optic coefficient of POF, the spectral response for POF Bragg gratings show high stability and larger spectrum bandwidth with temperature variation compare with the silica optical fiber (SOF) Bragg gratings, especially with the increase of the kL g value. It was found that by increasing kL g , the peak reflectance value increases and the bandwidth of the Bragg reflector become narrower. Also it’s shown by increasing the kL g value, τ r deceasing significantly and reach its minimum value at the designed wavelength ( λ B ). Furthermore, the τ r for POF Bragg gratings is less than that for SOF Bragg gratings at the same value of kL g . Also it’s found that the peak reflectivity value increases to around 60% when the ∆ n value increases from 1 ˣ 10 -4 to 5 ˣ 10 -4 .

Full Width-Half Maximum Characteristics of FBG for Petroleum Sensor Applications

Hisham K. Hisham

Pages: 99-103

PDF Full Text
Abstract

In this paper, we have analyzed the full width-half maximum (FWHM) response of a uniform fiber Bragg grating (FBG) for petroleum sensor applications numerically. The analysis; which is depending on parameters such as the gratings length (Lg) and the amplitude of an induced index profile (Δn) change have successfully investigated using MATHCAD software. From the numerical simulation, there is an effect of the Lg and the Δn on the FWHM response. Results show the Lg value that effect the FWHM response is ≤7 mm. In contrast, results show that there is no effect of temperature on the FWHM response. In light of the increasing demand for a wide FWHM band within the applications of optical sensor technology, the results obtained are very important, especially in the field of petroleum industry.

The 3-dB FBG bandwidth Characteristics

Hisham K. Hisham

Pages: 68-73

PDF Full Text
Abstract

In this paper, the effect of the grating parameters (i.e. gratings length (Lg) and the induced index profile (Δn)); the temperature variation (T) and the applied strain change on the fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) 3dB-bandwidth (i.e. full width-half maximum (FWHM)) have successfully investigated numerically using MATHCAD software. Results show that for Lg < 7 mm, the FBG 3dB-bandwidth (i.e. full width-half maximum (FWHM)) value shows a good reliable and visible impact. Otherwise, there are no significant effects except for increasing the FBG reflectivity. Also, results show that the FWHM value has affected by the change of the Δn value. In contrast, results show that there is no significant effect of the temperature on the FWHM value. Also, results shown that the dependence of the Bragg wavelength (λB) upon both strain and temperature variations is lies within the range of 0.462 – 0.470 fm με-1 °C-1

Hisham K. Hisham

Pages: 53-58

PDF Full Text
Abstract

This paper presents a numerical analysis for the effect of temperature variations on the strain response of polymer optical fiber (POF) Bragg gratings. Results show that the dependence of the Bragg wavelength (λ B ) upon strain and temperature variations for the POF Bragg gratings is lies within the range of 0.462 – 0.470 fm με -1 °C -1 compare with 0.14 – 0.15 fm με -1 °C -1 for the SOFs Bragg gratings. Also, results show that the strain response for the POF Bragg gratings changed on average by 1.034 ± 0.02fm με - important for strain sensor applications especially in the environments where the temperature change.

Design Methodology for Reducing RIN Level in DFB Lasers

Hisham K. Hisham

Pages: 207-213

PDF Full Text
Abstract

The relative intensity noise (RIN) characteristics in distributed feedback (DFB) lasers are analyzed theoretically by proposing a new methodology. In addition to temperature variation (T), the effect of other model parameters such as injection current (I inj ), active layer volume (V), spontaneous emission (β sp ) and gain compression (ε) factors on RIN characteristics is investigated. The numerical simulations shows, the peak RIN level can be reduced to around –150 dB/Hz, while relaxation oscillation frequency (ROF) is shifted towards 5.6 GHz. In addition, the RIN level is increased with temperature by the rate of 0.2 dB/ºC and ROF is reduced by the rate of 0.018 GHz/ºC. Results show, the low RIN level can be obtained by selecting model parameters reasonably.

Delay Time Reduction in VCSELs by Optimizing Laser Parameters

Hisham K. Hisham

Pages: 146-154

PDF Full Text
Abstract

An extensive analysis on reducing the turn-on time delay (t on ) in vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSELs) has conducted successfully by considering all the recombination rate coefficients R(N) Besides the R(N) coefficients, the impact of other laser parameters such as, injection current (I inj ), laser cavity volume (V),mirror reflectivity (R), and operating temperature (T) also have investigated. Unlike pervious studies, the temperature dependence (TD) of t on is calculated according to TD of laser parameters instead of well-known Pankove relationship. Results showed that, t on can be reduced by increasing the I inj and/or the N i . Meanwhile, the t on increases by increasing the R(N) coefficients. Also, results showed that the t on can be reduced by increasing the R-level or by optimizing laser cavity volume.

Improving Operating Time for External Laser Source based Polymer Fiber by Optimizing Model Parameters

Hisham Kadhum Hisham, Ali Kamel Marzook

Pages: 206-213

PDF Full Text
Abstract

In this paper, an analysis of performance acceleration of an external laser source (ELS) model based polymer fiber gratings (PFGs) by reducing the turn-on delay time (TDelay) is successfully investigated numerically by optimizing model parameters. In contrast to all previous studies that relied either on approximate or experimental equations, the analysis was based on an exact numerical formula. The analysis is based on the investigation of the effect of diode injected current (Iin j), temperature (T), recombination rate coefficients (i.e. Anr, B, and C), and optical feedback (OFB) level. Results have demonstrated that by optimizing model parameters the Delay can be controlled and reduced effectively.

Pages: 5-8

PDF Full Text
Abstract

Analog filters constitute indispensible component of analog circuits and still playing an important part in interface with analog real world. realizing filters with odd order is preferred because of its time response . Therefore, this paper is conducted to introduce a new generalized Chebyshev – like approximation for analog filters. The analyses presented to realize the filters with odd order. This proposed novel approach offer good results in terms of flat delay and time domain response. Also, the achieved results are validated by comparison to normal Chebyshev filter via investigation several examples .

Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access (NOMA) has been promised for fifth generation (5G) cellular wireless network that can serve multiple users at same radio resources time, frequency, and code domains with different power levels. In this paper, we present a new simulation compression between a random location of multiple users for Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access (NOMA) and Orthogonal Multiple Access (OMA) that depend on Successive Interference Cancellation (SIC) and generalized the suggested joint user pairing for NOMA and beyond cellular networks. Cell throughput and Energy Efficiency (EE) are gained are developed for all active NOMA user in suggested model. Simulation results clarify the cell throughput for NOMA gained 7 Mpbs over OMA system in two different scenarios deployed users (3 and 4). We gain an attains Energy Efficiency (EE) among the weak power users and the stronger power users.
