Abstract

In this paper, a performance study of 8-Pulse-Position Modulation (PPM), 8-Digital Pulse Interval Modulation (DPIM), and 8-Reverse Dual Header-Pulse Interval Modulation (RDH-PIM) implementation in Verilog hardware design language is presented. The hardware design is chosen over software design since it could provide much more flexibility in term of transmission rate and reduce the workload of the processor in the complete system. Using 50 MHz clock as the reference data clock speeds, the transmission rate recorded are 11.11 Msymbol/second or 33.33 Mbps, 9.09 Msymbol/s or 27.27 Mbps, and 6.25 Msymbol/s or 18.75 Mbps for 8-RDH-PIM, 8-DPIM, and 8-PPM respectively. We conclude that 8-RDH-PIM modulator design provides better performance in term of bandwidth utilization and transmission rate as compared to 8-PPM and 8-DPIM.

Abstract

A novel tapered plastic optic fiber (POF) biosensor is proposed and demonstrated for monitoring limonene in different concentrations. The mechanism of this device is based on an increase in the light transmission of a sensor submerged in a higher-concentration limonene solution, which also reflects an increase in the refractive index of the sensor. The tapered POF was fabricated using the chemical etching method to accomplish different waist diameters of 0.6 mm, 0.55 mm, and 0.5 mm, with a fiber length of 10 cm and a 2 cm sensing region. An Arduino integrated development environment (IDE) program was used to drive the voltage values from the photodetectors to obtain the measurements. As the limonene concentration solution varied from 20% to 100%, the output voltage of the sensor increased linearly, showing a sensitivity of 0.295 V/%, 0.33 V/%, and 0.46 V/% for tapered waist diameters of 0.6 mm, 0.55 mm, and 0.5 mm, respectively. The proposed sensor is a low-cost solution measurement option with high sensitivity, while it also involves a simple and easy fabrication technique.
