Design and development of a novel level transmitter utilizing lithium niobate (LiNbO3) Mach-Zehnder modulator for hazardous regions
摘要: In the proposed work, a very low-cost transducer and a novel photonic based transmission technique have developed for liquid level measurement. Two copper parallel plates are used to measure the liquid level in the sensing tube. For transmission of the measured quantity to the remote location, electrical (1–5 V DC), as well as optical technique, has been used. A lithium niobate (LiNbO3) based Mach Zehnder interferometer has been used for the optical transmission. In the proposed method 40GHz, Photline made MXAN-LN-40 light intensity Mach-Zehnder modulator was used. The optical output was analyzed with the help of optical spectrum analyzer (MS9710B) as well as optical meter. Optical transmission was not affected by EMI interference and very advantageous in the inflammable regions. With the help of the proposed method, the sensitivity of 7.02 pF/cm. from the sensor and ?0.236 dBm/cm. from the modulator were achieved. The output of the sensor, signal conditioning, and optically transmitted data has been analyzed experimentally.

Optical Fiber Communications (Principles and Applications) || Optical Measurements
摘要: Optical measurements are necessary to verify the operational characteristics of the optical fiber communication link. Various measurement techniques and special-purpose test equipments are employed for determining key performance parameters of the constituent components and devices including the optical fiber. It is quite obvious that optical measurements are needed at different levels of research and design, manufacturing and production of optical components and devices, installation and commissioning of optical fiber communication systems in the field. There is wide variety of optical measurement and test equipments used. These include optical power meter, optical oscilloscope and spectrum analyzer, optical time-domain reflectometer (OTDR), optical waveform analyzer, connector inspection microscope, dispersion analyzer, live fiber detector, talk-set, optical test set (combined source and power meter), etc. All these measurements are wavelength specific. Fiber attenuation and occurrence of faults in the optical fiber link is the main concern in ensuring the desired performance. There are several challenges involved with optical measurements like multiple wavelengths/channels, high optical power levels, need to carry tests remotely along with a high degree of automation.
