We propose a nonlinear fiber system for shot-noise limited, all-optical intensity-noise reduction and signal amplification. The mechanism is based on the accumulation of different phase shifts between orthogonal polarization modes in polarization-maintaining amplifier combination with an implemented sinusoidal transmission-function. resulting correlation input intensity-fluctuations transmissio...

In low-light conditions, it is known that Poisson noise and quantization noise become dominant sources of noise. While intensity difference is usually measured by Euclidean distance, it often breaks down due to an unnegligible amount of uncertainty in observations caused by noise. In this paper, we develop a new noise model based upon Poisson noise and quantization noise. We then propose a new ...

the intensity of noise, heat and light were measured in 10 different groups of food processing plants with 3820 employees. noise was measured in 265 working places and if the over-all noise was more than t.l.v. (90dba), the octave band analysis was carried out. effective temperature (e.t) or corrected effective temperature (c.e.t) were measured in 183 working places and air velocity relative hu...

We describe the quantum-noise behavior of a laser that has nonorthogonal polarization modes. The nonorthogonality of the modes leads to excess quantum noise. Theoretically, we derive the excess noise dynamics of the laser, including the saturation of the gain medium. Experimentally, we have measured the noise dynamics in the polarization, intensity and phase degrees of freedom of a 3.51-mm HeXe...

Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) uses the spatial and temporal coherence properties of optical waves backscattered from a tissue sample to form an image. An inherent characteristic of coherent imaging is the presence of speckle noise. In this study we use a new ensemble framework which is a combination of several Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) neural networks to denoise OCT images. The noise is...

Demodulation of intensity noise in the optical heterodyne detector is analyzed for application in interferometric gravitational-wave detectors. The correlation function and the power spectral density of the demodulated intensity noise are derived, taking into account the effect of bandpass filtering at the photodiode and an arbitrary demodulation waveform. The analysis includes demodulation of ...

A coupled map lattice of generalized Lotka-Volterra equations in the presence of colored multiplicative noise is used to analyze the spatiotemporal evolution of three interacting species: one predator and two preys symmetrically competing each other. The correlation of the species concentration over the grid as a function of time and of the noise intensity is investigated. The presence of noise...
