An optical signal encoder/decoder includes a grating waveguide having an identical number of uniform pitch gratings to the number of code chips of a binary phase optical code, the uniform pitch gratings being formed in a waveguide direction to reflect light of a predetermined wavelength. Here, adjacent gratings corresponding to a position at which the optical code value changes are disposed a spacing apart from each other to give a phase shift of (2m+1)π/2 to the light, and the remaining adjacent gratings are disposed a spacing apart from each other to give a phase shift of nπ to the light (m, n: integer).

There is provided a fiber Bragg grating devise comprising an FBG mount that is constituted by sequentially stacking a temperature control plate, a base plate, and a mounting plate, and an SSFBG in which a plurality of FBG units of the same constitution and a plurality of phase modulation portions are alternately formed in the same optical fiber. The temperature control plate is constituted by a thermo module and a heat-insulating member. The base plate is fixed in contact with the upper face of the temperature control plate and the mounting plate is in contact with the upper face of the base plate in a state where the mounting plate is able to glide over the upper face of the base plate. The SSFBG is fixed to contact an FBG contact portion that is established on the upper face of the mounting plate. The phase modulation portions are formed to be capable of expanding and contracting and, as a result of the expansion and contraction of the phase modulation portions, the phase of the carrier wave of the optical pulse signal that is propagated by the phase modulation portions can be changed.

An optical filter is manufactured by placing a photosensitive optical fiber in a spiral arrangement on a fiber holder, preferably having a spiral groove for holding the fiber, and exposing the fiber to ultraviolet light through a phase mask having a spiral diffraction grating, forming an in-fiber Bragg grating. The fiber can be conveniently scanned by an ultraviolet beam as the fiber holder and phase mask turn on a rotating stage. The fiber can be compactly packaged between the fiber holder and a cover. The fiber holder and cover can be formed by coating a substrate with layers of polymer material, the spiral groove being formed by photolithographic patterning of one of the layers.

摘要:
An automatic document conveying device comprising a paper-feeder for sequentially separating one document sheet from a stack of document sheets loaded on a document loading table and for sequentially transporting each document sheet to a standby position upstream of an image exposure section and for halting each document sheet at the standby position, the standby position being variably determined by the length of each document sheet. A conveyor conveys each document sheet from the standby position to an exposure position on the image exposure section on a glass surface of the document loading table, each document is discharged after it is scanned and exposed by the image exposure section. The image exposure section is controlled to scan and expose a first document sheet, and a second document sheet is halted at the standby position while the first document is being scanned and exposed. The first document sheet is discharged after it has been scanned and exposed, and the second document sheet is conveyed from the standby position to the image exposure position when discharge of the first document begins. A third document sheet is then conveyed to the standby position at least before the scanning and exposure of the second document at the image exposure position is completed. The paper-feeder, conveyor and discharge device are operated until the entire stack of documents loaded on the document loading table is scanned and exposed.
摘要:
An object of the present invention is to provide an OCDM transceiver with which the reduction amount of the intensity of the correlation waveform signal is smaller than that of a conventional device of the same type in the decoding step that comprises a time gate processing step. Hence, in the OCDM transceiver of the present invention that comprises an encoding portion and a decoding portion, the decoding portion is constituted comprising a decoder, clock extractor, and time gate. The decoder decodes an encoded optical pulse signal and separates the encoded optical pulse signal into a clock signal extraction signal and an optical pulse signal playback signal. The clock extractor extracts a clock signal from the clock signal extraction signal. Further, the time gate removes only the auto-correlation waveform component from the optical pulse signal playback signal. The auto-correlation waveform component is converted to an electrical signal by means of an optical receiver and generated as a reception signal.
