Cooperative luminescence and absorption in ytterbium doped aluminosilicate glass optical fibres and preforms

The cooperative luminescence and absorption properties of Yb³⁺ doped aluminosilicate glass optical fibres and preforms are investigated in detail. In accordance with previous investigations, both the visible cooperative luminescence and the infrared luminescence decay measurements have been resolved into a single exponential decay component. We show that for a glass with similar Yb³⁺ dopant concentration but more Al³⁺, the glass emits less visible luminescence. Absorption loss measurements completed on fibre samples revealed a broad absorption in the 350-500 nm range, which we propose is due to a combination of Yb²⁺ absorption and cooperative absorption from Yb³⁺ ion pairs.

Modeling of waveguide UV-induced Bragg gratings with arbitrary apodization function: Tools for designing high-performance related devices

We present a semi-analytical modeling suitable for the investigation of the spectral characteristics of UV-waveguide Bragg gratings (UV-WBGs) having arbitrary apodization function and extending both in the film layer and in the overlayer. The modeling is based on a proper combination of coupled mode theory and transfer matrix formalism and provides a powerful tool for designing and simulation of complex UV-grating based structures. The results of a detailed investigation of UV-WBGs in doped silica based channel optical waveguides are presented and critical issues for upgrading the performances of related device are discussed. Validation of the modeling is provided by means of an extensive comparison between theoretical and experimental results relevant to UV-WBGs realized in phosphorous (P)- and boron (B)-doped silica based waveguides.     

基于多载波的宽带无线接入策略的研究

呼叫接入控制是无线通信中保证用户服务质量的关键技术之一。本文提出了一种在多业务环境下,基于多载波通信的优先强占接入策略:当剩余无线资源不能接纳实时业务的呼叫时,实时业务呼叫强占部分非实时业务占用的子载波来保证实时业务的接入,与此同时增加了非实时业务的传输时延。本文通过二维Markov链模型对系统进行了建模和性能参数(呼叫阻塞概率及系统频带利用率)的求解。通过与保护信道策略和无优先策略的比较可以看到:优先强占策略将接入控制和服务质量保证有机地结合在一起,既保证了用户的QoS,又大大降低了系统中的实时业务用户的呼叫阻塞概率,提高了系统资源的利用率。     

Comparing the streaming of FGS encoded video at different aggregation levels: frame,GoP, and scene

Fine granularity scalability (FGS), a new coding technique that has recently been added to the MPEG‐4 video coding standard, allows for the flexible scaling of each individual video frame at very fine granularity. This flexibility makes FGS video very well suited for rate‐distortion optimized streaming mechanisms, which minimize the distortion (i.e. maximize the quality) of the streamed video by transmitting the optimal number of bits for each individual frame. The per‐frame optimization of the transmission schedule, however, puts a significant computational burden on video servers and intermediate streaming gateways. In this paper we investigate the rate‐distortion optimized streaming at different video frame aggregation levels. We find that compared to the optimization for each individual video frame, optimization at the level of video scenes reduces the computational effort dramatically, while reducing the video quality only very slightly.

Sequencing games with repeated players

Two classes of one machine sequencing situations are considered in which each job corresponds to exactly one player but a player may have more than one job to be processed, so called RP(repeated player) sequencing situations. In max-RP sequencing situations it is assumed that each player’s cost function is linear with respect to the maximum completion time of his jobs, whereas in min-RP sequencing situations the cost functions are linear with respect to the minimum completion times. For both classes, following explicit procedures to go from the initial processing order to an optimal order for the coalition of all players, equal gain splitting rules are defined. It is shown that these rules lead to core elements of the associated RP sequencing games. Moreover, it is seen that min-RP sequencing games are convex.
