We present two interferometric techniques for the measurements of the polarization mode dispersion of standard (i.e. circular) single-mode fibers. The first method uses an interferometric loop and works in the frequency domain. The second uses a polarizati ...
Birefringent single-mode fibers with random polarization mode coupling and polarization dependent losses are considered. The effect of these losses on polarization mode dispersion (PMD) is computed. The relevant number is found to be the differential loss ...
Dispersion supported transmission (DST) is a new technique which combines intensity modulation (IM) and optical frequency modulation (OFM) to allow transmission spans beyond the usual dispersion limit. Using computer simulation, DST limitations are evaluat ...

The feasibility of a survivable all-optical transport network over standard single-mode fibre between eight major European cities is investigated. The chosen topology is intended to ensure survivability after a link or a node failure. The maximum transmiss ...
Distributed Brillouin gain measurements along single mode fibres have demonstrated their potentiality for local temperature sensing and monitoring strains experienced by optical fibres. The results of such measurements is directly related to the acoustic p ...
We present a simple technique to precisely and continuously adjust the resonance wavelengths of long-period cladding-mode-coupled gratings without strongly affecting the coupling strength. The main principle of this method is based on the strong dependence ...
Among all scattering processes, spontaneous Brillouin scattering originates from the interaction between light and thermal acoustic waves propagating in the medium. The interference resulting from the incident light and its spontaneously backscattered frac ...
Among all non-linear optical effects observed in single-mode optical fibres, stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) is of particular importance since it has numerous practical implications. SBS occurs when laser waves are scattered through the interaction o ...
Mixts. of methane, H, and Ar (CH4:H2:Ar) were studied as UV Raman shifters for ozone differential absorption lidar application. They have higher photochem. stability than pure CH4 and the capability to produce, with high enough efficiency, either 1st CH4 S ...
