Abstract: Provided are an optical system for processing an image using a PSF and an image processing method thereof. The optical system includes one or more lenses, an image sensor, and an image processor. The image sensor senses an image formed by the lenses, and the image processor recovers the image sensed by the image sensor using a PSF. A BFL defined as a distance between a refractive surface of one of the lenses that is closest to an image-side and the image sensor, is controlled such that ?PSF defined by Equation below has a value less than 100%. ? ? ? PSF ? ( % ) = PSF ? - PSF macro ( PSF ? + PSF macro ) ? / ? 2 × 100 An image is recovered using a PSF, so that an excellent image can be obtained over a wide object distance range.

Abstract: Disclosed is an optical fiber suitable for WDM system, particularly whose zero-dispersion wavelength is positioned in a short wavelength band less than 1,300 mm. In the optical fiber, dispersion has a positive value, not zero, at 1,310 nm, and a dispersion slope is positive at 1,550 nm with dispersion of 25 ps/nm-km or less. In addition, an effective sectional area is 65 ?m2 or less at 1,310 nm, and 80 ?m2 or less at 1,550 nm. Thus, though a transmission signal is Raman-amplified at a wavelength band of 1,300˜1,700 nm, transmission characteristics are not deteriorated due to crosstalk between pump signals. In addition, since the optical fiber has smaller effective sectional area than a general single-mode optical fiber with having substantially the same dispersion feature, it gives better Raman gain efficiency than a general single-mode optical fiber.

Abstract: Disclosed is an optical fiber suitable for an optical transmission line used in WDM system, particularly a single-mode optical fiber whose zero-dispersion wavelength is positioned in a short wavelength band (less than 1,370 mm) so as to enable high-speed mass-storage signal transmission over S-C-L bands (1,460˜1,625 nm) and whose dispersion value and effective sectional area are optimized. In the optical fiber, a dispersion value is at least 9 ps/nm-km at 1,460 nm, an effective sectional area is 45-65 ?m2 at 1,460 rim, a zero-dispersion wavelength exists at 1,370 nm or less, and a dispersion slope is positive. In addition, RDS (Relative Dispersion Slope) is 0.0032˜0.0038 nm?1 at 1,550 nm. Thus, the optical fiber enables to repress non-linearity and signal distortion to the maximum during 320 km repeaterless transmission with a transmission rate of 10 Gb/s or more over S-C-L bands, a channel spacing of 50 GHz or less, 16 channels, and a signal power of 0 dBm/ch or 2 dBm/ch.
