DYNAMICAL AND TOPOLOGICAL INVARIANTS OF NONLINEAR DYNAMICS OF THE CHAOTIC LASER DIODES WITH AN ADDITIONAL OPTICAL INJECTION

Nonlinear chaotic dynamics of the of the chaotic laser diodes with an additional optical injection is computed within rate equations model, based on the a set of rate equations for the slave laser electric complex amplitude and carrier density. To calculate the system dynamics in a chaotic regime the known chaos theory and non-linear analysis methods such as a correlation integral algorithm, the Lyapunov’s exponents and Kolmogorov entropy analysis are used. There are listed the data of computing dynamical and topological invariants such as the correlation, embedding and Kaplan-Yorke dimensions, Lyapunov’s exponents, Kolmogorov entropy etc. New data on topological and dynamical invariants are computed and firstly presented.

Simultaneous Strain and Temperature Measurement Based on Chaotic Brillouin Optical Correlation-Domain Analysis in Large-Effective-Area Fibers

Chaotic Brillouin optical correlation domain analysis (BOCDA) has been proposed and experimentally demonstrated with the advantage of high spatial resolution. However, it faces the same issue of the temperature and strain cross-sensitivity. In this paper, the simultaneous measurement of temperature and strain can be preliminarily achieved by analyzing the two Brillouin frequencies of the chaotic laser in a large-effective-area fiber (LEAF). A temperature resolution of 1 °C and a strain resolution of 20 µε can be obtained with a spatial resolution of 3.9 cm. The actual temperature and strain measurement errors are 0.37 °C and 10 µε, respectively, which are within the maximum measurement errors.
