Multiservice Optical Fibre Local Area Networks For Data Transmission And Telemetry In The Electric Power Industry
1986
The paper contains a review of a few of experimental optical fibre multiservice and multibranch local area networks /LANs/. Systems accomplish transmission, distribution and processing of analog or digital signals from numerous sources or measurement terminals. The authors put stress also on the possibility of combining transmission properties of fiber optic networks with fibre optic sensors. Several construction problems and chosen properties of multiport /multiterminal/ optical buses /networks/ have been considered. All examination systems of optical fibre LANs are discussed in respect of application them as telemetric, transmission, telesignaling and telecontrol systems for the power ele…
Kalman filtering applied to Profibus-DP systems. Multirate control systems with delayed signals
2008
In networked control systems several devices (controllers, sensors and actuators) share a common communication resource. This feature can introduce variable and even random delays when those devices try to transmit information through the shared medium. The limited bandwidth capabilities of the transmission medium also can restrict the freedom to set the sampling periods in the control loop. An attempt to reduce the significance of the signal delays and save to some bandwidth can be based on high values of sampling periods. Usually this solution has remarkable effects in the system performance because with higher sampling periods closed loop response capabilities are decreased. This paper p…
Packet loss recovery in an indoor Free Space Optics link using rateless codes
2014
Free Space Optics (FSO) systems present some important advantages if compared to Radio Frequency links, but they can be affected by several impairments that degrade the link quality and availability. In particular, due to temporary interruptions of the line-of-sight condition between the transmitter and the receiver, packet loss can occur during data transmission. In this work, we present an indoor Free Space Optics link, in which we have systematically generated interruptions of the beam. We demonstrate how the application of the most recent rateless codes, i.e., RaptorQ codes, can strongly improve the link quality by reducing packet loss. In particular, results show that the Packet Error …
<title>Safety problems in free space optical transmission</title>
2006
The paper is focused on safety of exploitation of optical transmission devices in free space. The subjects concerning propagation of "open" optical stream and its' possible dangerous influence on environment, mainly living organisms are discussed. An attempt to evaluate an installation and exploitation of transmitting devices was made, concerning dangers, requirements, recommendations and restrictions, concluding from accepted safety standards (IEC 60825- 1 :2005, EN 60825-1 :2005 and in Poland PN-EN 60825-1 :2005 "Safety of laser devices - Equipment classification, requirements and user's guide"; IEC 60825-12:2004, EN 60825-12:2005 and in Poland PN-EN 60825-12:2005 "Safety of free space op…
Enabling Backoff for SCM Wake-Up Radio: Protocol and Modeling
2017
In sub-carrier modulation (SCM) wake-up radio (WuR) enabled wireless sensor networks, a node can initiate data transmission at any instant of time. In this letter, we propose to activate a backoff procedure before sending wake-up calls (WuCs) in order to avoid potential collisions among WuCs. Consequently, no backoff is needed for the main radio after a WuC is received. A discrete-time Markov chain model is developed to evaluate the performance. Numerical results on network throughput, energy efficiency, average delay, and collision probability reveal the benefits of enabling backoff for SCM-WuRs, especially under heavy traffic loads or saturated traffic conditions.
Joint Distribution of Polarization-Multiplexed UWB and WiMAX Radio in PON
2009
[EN] In this paper, the feasibility of the joint distribution of ultra-wideband (UWB) and WIMAX wireless using polarization multiplexing as a coexistence technique is proposed and experimentally demonstrated within the framework of passive optical networks (PON). Four single- and orthogonal-polarization multiplexing schemes are studied targeting to reduce the mutual interference when UWB and WiMAX are distributed jointly through standard single-mode fiber (SSMF) without transmission impairments compensation techniques and amplification. Experimental results indicate successful transmission up to 25 km, in SSMF exceeding the range in typical PON deployments. The radio link penalty introduced…
A Multisensor Proposal for Wireless Sensor Networks
2008
Every sensor node in a wireless sensor network (WSN) has a microcontroller, a transmitter/receiver and a sensor. It is able to acquire data from specific point in a real environment and transmit it through the WSN. Sometimes it is useful to gather different type of data from the same place in order to obtain a final result. In the related literature, very few works are about sensing different parameters using a unique sensor. In this paper we propose a Wireless IP multisensor that is able to gather several types of data from the environment and transmit the result of their combination. Our proposal decision has being mainly based on its development costs, its expansion capacity and its flex…
A novel miniature telemetric system for recording EEG activity in freely moving rats
2008
Telemetric recording systems offer the advantage to monitor physiological parameters in freely moving animals without any restrictions in their explorative behaviour. We present a novel, inexpensive, portable and reusable telemetric system to record the electroencephalogram (EEG) from adult freely moving rats under various experimental conditions. Our system consists of an implantable transmitter which communicates at a sampling rate of 500 Hz bi-directional with a receiver via radio transmission (in EU: 868.35 MHz; in USA: 916.5 MHz) over a distance of up to 3 m. The switching time between receiving and transmitting signals is 20s and the data transmission rate amounts to 115.2 kbps. The r…
Spontaneous hot-electron light emission from electron-fed optical antennas
2015
Nanoscale electronics and photonics are among the most promising research areas providing functional nano-components for data transfer and signal processing. By adopting metal-based optical antennas as a disruptive technological vehicle, we demonstrate that these two device-generating technologies can be interfaced to create an electronically-driven self-emitting unit. This nanoscale plasmonic transmitter operates by injecting electrons in a contacted tunneling antenna feedgap. Under certain operating conditions, we show that the antenna enters a highly nonlinear regime in which the energy of the emitted photons exceeds the quantum limit imposed by the applied bias. We propose a model based…
Demonstration of a fiber optical communication system employing a silica microsphere-based OFC source.
2021
The fabrication of microsphere resonators and the generation of optical frequency combs (OFC) have achieved a significant breakthrough in the past decade. Despite these advances, no studies have reported the experimental implementation and demonstration of silica microsphere OFCs for data transmission. In this work, to the best of our knowledge, we experimentally for the first time present a designed silica microsphere whispering-gallery-mode microresonator (WGMR) OFC as a C-band light source where 400 GHz spaced carriers provide data transmission of up to 10 Gbps NRZ-OOK modulated signals over the standard ITU-T G.652 telecom fiber span of 20 km in length. A proof-of-concept experiment is …
