We proposed a scheme of fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensor interrogation system based on all fiber Mach-Zehnder Interferometer (MZI) edge filter and tunable-FBG. The equal power signals from FBG sensor and tunable FBG are coupled into port 1 and port 2 of MZI respectively. The experimental results show that the interrogation precision of the proposed system is 0.02 nm in a range of I nm. Furthermore, the precision can be improved by adjusting the two interference arms of the filter.
A novel single-mode single-polarization (SMSP) photonic crystal fibre has been proposed and analysed based on the polarization-dependent coupling and absorption effect via a full-vector finite element method with perfectly matched layers. The numerical results predict that very efficient SMSP operation can be achieved with both high bandwidth and high extinction ratio at low loss penalty. Effects of the fibre structural parameters on the SMSP bandwidth and extinction ratio have been explored, which will provide useful guide for the design and fabrication of the fibre. The results obtained will be instructive for the realization of new SMSP fibres with high performance.
This article explores the short-range dependence (SRD) and the long-range dependence (LRD) of self-similar traffic generated by the fractal-binomial-noise-driven Poisson process (FBNDP) model and lays emphasis on the former. By simulation, the SRD decaying trends with the increase of Hurst value and peak rate are obtained, respectively. After a comprehensive analysis of accuracy of self-similarity intensity, the optimal range of peak rate is determined by taking into account the time cost, the accuracy of self-similarity intensity, and the effect of SRD.
