Optical fiber amplification technology [PDF]
Annales Des Télécommunications, 2003 This part aims at giving keys to understand why erbium-doped fiber amplifiers (edfa) have revolutionized signal transmission techniques and how they can complement with Raman amplification in next generation systems. A first part is dedicated to physics basics ofedfa followed by the description of the system requirements for both terrestrial and ...

Fiber-optic rotation sensor technology
Applied Optics, 1980A concept for an all-waveguide fiber-optic rotation sensor is discussed, and the results of preliminary tests of key elements are described. A single channel waveguide coupler design provides the functions of an optical switch, a 3-dB beam splitter, a phase retarder, and a signal modulator, all of which may be formed on the same chip and interconnected

Foundations of optical fiber technology
1995An optical fiber is a strand of dielectric material which can trap optical radiation at one end and guide it to the other. Normally, the fiber consists of at least two optically dissimilar materials, as shown in a generalized manner in Fig. 2.1. These materials are arranged so that one material, called the cladding, completely surrounds the other.

Impact of Fiber Optic Technology
1997Fiber optic technology has catalyzed the information revolution. Its impact is as profound on telecommunications as the impact of the internal combustion engine on transportation. It is just that fiber has not reached every home, even though the automobile has; but then the fiber optic industry is a full generation younger than the automobile industry.

Fiber Optic Technology for Reservoir Surveillance
All Days, 2011Abstract Fiber-optic sensing technology for in-well applications has traditionally focused on temperature profiling. This has limited the application of fiber-optic reservoir surveillance to recovery processes with a pronounced thermal signature.

Fiber Optic Temperature Monitoring Technology
Proceedings of SPE Western Regional Meeting, 1999Abstract Fiber optic distributed temperature monitoring of downhole conditions is an emerging technology that can be used to obtain important reservoir temperature information where conventional methods have failed. Due to the development of fiber coatings and improved deployment techniques, fibers are now used reliably up to 480 °F in ...
