abstract = {In this paper, we present a new refractive index profile, in simple easy to use equation form, which allows the design of large mode area (LMA) single mode (SM) optical fibers with the special property of supporting “perfect top-hat” mode profiles. The few parameters of this formula define the refractive index profile of such fibers. We show the effect the parameters of the refractive index profile have on the desired mode field. By applying this direct formula, we avoid the use of complex inverse refractive index reconstruction methods, or time-consuming iterative design processes. We demonstrate this formula with a number of example designs of LMA SM optical fibers with perfect flat-top electric field profile and an effective mode area (Aeff) size that in some cases exceeds the 4800 μm 2 . We expect such LMA SM top-hat fiber design to be useful for the mitigation of non-linear effects and catastrophic optical damage, as well as for achieving uniform intensity deposition on the target...},

abstract = {Indoor positioning or localization based on visible light communications (VLC) is an emerging technology with wide applications. In conventional localization schemes, the trilateration technique is widely used with at least three separate lighting sources to determine the user’s location. An indoor VLC positioning scheme based on the optical power distributions of only two light emitting diodes (LEDs) is reported for different environments. We have used two received signal strength indications to determine the user’s position based on the LEDs configuration offering less complexity. We propose comprehensive mathematical models for the VLC localization system considering the noise and its impact on the user’s location, and numerically evaluated it over a range of signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs). In addition, it is compared to the results with the exiting trilateration technique. The performance of the proposed system is evaluated with a reported accuracy of <20  cm for an SNR of >13  dB.

abstract = {In this paper, we present a new and efficient technique for the exact reconstruction of large mode area (LMA) higher order mode (HOM) optical fibers by using arbitrary shape HOM electric field profiles. One known strategy to achieve LMAs for high power optical applications is by using optical fibers supporting multimode operation, and engineering these fibers such that they operate on just a single transverse mode. Although the fundamental mode is preferred in most circumstances, there is an increasing interest in operating on a single HOM instead since these can have interesting dispersion characteristics and also significantly higher ability to scale mode areas. An issue with the use of HOMs in high power applications is that often they demonstrate regions of high field intensity across the core. This leads to problems with optical damage at lower values of effective area than might otherwise be expected. In order to avoid this problem, we offer designs of optical fibers supporting mode-flattened HOM electric fields. We develop a new inverse transmission line technique for calculating directly and accurately the refractive index profiles of such fibers from knowledge of the desired HOM electric field. We demonstrate this algorithm with a number of example reconstructions of LMA HOM optical fibers supporting prescribed mode-flattened electric field profiles with ultralarge effective mode areas We expect such fiber designs to be useful in the mitigation of nonlinear effects and in thermal and damage management.

abstract = {In this work we analytically investigate optimal combiners for pre-amplified diversity receivers that operate under medium-to-strong atmospheric turbulence. We first demonstrate that the combiner performance is strongly affected by the existence of a signal-amplified spontaneous emission beat noise at the output of the photodetector. Due to the signal-dependent nature of noise, the optimal combiner can be classified as a hybrid one, of which performance is between the well-known equal-gain and maximal-ratio combiner architectures. Having established the optimal design, we further assess the proposed combiner performance over gamma-gamma and negative-exponential fading environments.
