An optical receiver in an optical communication system, and more particularly, to a method and an apparatus for optimizing a decision level of a signal output from an optical receiver to obtain a minimum bit error rate (BER) by measuring output characteristics of the optical receiver and adjusting a reference voltage of the optical receiver based on a measurement result. The provided method includes measuring the strength of an electric signal at a modulated frequency out of the frequency elements of the output electric signal in the optical receiver, generating a reference voltage based on the strength data of the electric signal, inputting the reference voltage to the optical receiver and re-measuring the strength of the electric signal output from the optical receiver to determine whether the strength of the signal is minimum, and maintaining the reference voltage when the strength of the signal is minimum and adjusting the reference voltage in other cases. Thus, the provided method optimizes the distribution of level one and level zero, i.e., a decision level, of the electric signal output from the optical receiver, so the efficiency and the performance of the transferred optical signal are maximized.

Provided are an optical fiber amplification method and apparatus for controlling a gain. Initial values including target gains of first and second amplifications for an optical amplifier amplifying the input light signal are set. Power of the input light signal is measured and the power of first and second backward pump lights proceeding in the opposite direction to the input light signal is controlled based on the measured power. The input light signal is firstly amplified and a first amplification gain of the amplified light signal is calculated. Power of a first forward pump light proceeding in the same direction as the input light signal is controlled so that the first amplification gain can be substantially equal to the target gain of the first amplification. The firstly amplified light signal is secondly amplified and a second amplification gain with respect to the input light signal is calculated. The power of a second forward pump light proceeding in the same direction as the input light signal is controlled so that the second amplification gain can be substantially equal to the target gain of the second amplification.

A low-noise optical fiber amplifier for performing a long-distance optical transmission in a wavelength division multiplexing optical transmission apparatus is provided. This amplifier includes a first optical fiber amplifier having a pre-stage optical fiber, and a first coupler for supplying pump light to the pre-stage optical fiber; a dispersion compensating Raman amplifier (DCRA) connected to the first optical fiber amplifier and having a dispersion compensating optical fiber (DCF) that compensates for the dispersion accumulated in an optical line and generates a Raman gain, and a second coupler for supplying Raman pump light onto the DCF; and a second optical fiber amplifier connected to the DCRA, and including a post-stage optical fiber and a third coupler for supplying pump light onto the post-stage optical fiber. Accordingly, this optical fiber amplifier is used for terrestrial WDM optical transmission, and thus has remarkably low noise figure compared to the existing optical amplifiers. For this reason, the optical fiber amplifier is available in long-distance transmission, and can be used in optical networks.

Disclosed is a wireless signal receiving apparatus, and more particularly, disclosed is a parallel automatic frequency offset estimation apparatus and method for tracking a frequency offset in an early stage by calculating, in parallel, frequency offsets of a received signal. The parallel automatic frequency offset estimation apparatus includes a receiving unit to receive a data frame; and a frequency offset estimation unit to calculate, in parallel, frequency and phase deviations at different bit intervals within a particular section of the received data frame, to add together the frequency and phase deviations to obtain a first sum of the frequency and phase deviations, and to add the first sum to a frequency phase deviation calculated for each bit after the particular section in the received data frame to obtain a second sum of the frequency and phase deviations. Accordingly, transmission frequency tracking can be performed at higher speed, compared to the conventional systems in which frequency offset acquisition is carried out in stages. Also, accurate tracking of a transmission frequency is possible in an initial frame.

An active radio frequency identification (RFID) apparatus having an additional transmitter in addition to a single transmitter is provided. The active RFID apparatus includes a first transmitter including a first pseudo noise (PN) code generator to generate a direct sequence spread spectrum (DSSS) introduced by ISO/IEC (International Organization for Standardization/International Electrotechnical Commission) 24730-2 or ISO/IEC 18185-5 type B; and a second transmitter including a second PN code generator to perform an AND operation on an initial value and a fed back value and shift the resultant value of the AND operation, to perform an XOR operation on particular bits from among the shifted bits and to perform an XOR operation again on the shifted bits and the resulting value of the XOR operation to finally generate a PN code. Accordingly, where an additional PN code is added besides an existing PN code, a PN code having excellent auto correlation characteristics allowing discrimination of the PN code itself and cross-correlation characteristics providing a code discrimination ability with respect to another code can be generated.
