  • Publication number: 20240295594
    Abstract: This disclosure provides a method of controlling an electromagnetic field detector by causing a first phase shift to be applied to a second probe signal path so as to cause a variation in a change in intensity of combined first and second paths of a probe signal; obtaining data indicating a second phase shift to be applied to the second probe signal path so as to increase the change in intensity of the combined first and second paths of the probe signal, wherein the second phase shift is determinable from a variation in the change in intensity of the combined first and second paths of the probe signal caused by the first phase shift; and causing the second phase shift to be applied to the second probe signal path.

  • Publication number: 20240094275
    Abstract: This disclosure provides an electromagnetic field detector, and a method of operating the electromagnetic field detector in a wireless telecommunications network, the electromagnetic field detector including a first optical transmitter, a second optical transmitter, and a transmission medium, wherein the first optical transmitter is configured to transmit a probe signal at a probe frequency and the second optical transmitter is configured to transmit a coupling signal at a coupling frequency, wherein the probe frequency is set to excite electrons of the transmission medium from a ground state to a first excited state and the coupling frequency is set to excite electrons of the transmission medium to a predetermined excited state so as to induce an Electromagnetic Induced Transparency (EIT) effect such that an incident electromagnetic field at the transmission medium causes a detectable change in the probe signal.

  • Publication number: 20240089008
    Abstract: This disclosure provides a method of receiving a plurality of data streams at an electromagnetic field receiver in a wireless telecommunications network, including obtaining data indicating detection of a first electromagnetic field incident at a transmission medium during a timeslot of a first subset of a plurality of timeslots; associating the detected first electromagnetic field with a first data stream of a plurality of data streams; obtaining data indicating detection of a second electromagnetic field incident at the transmission medium during a timeslot of a second subset of the plurality of timeslots; and associating the detected second electromagnetic field with a second data stream of the plurality of data streams.

  • Publication number: 20230379055
    Abstract: This disclosure provides a method of operating a central node in a telecommunications network, the telecommunications network including an optical network and a plurality of distributed nodes each configured to use a first optical signal at a first wavelength, the method including producing a first optical signal at a second wavelength; directing the first optical signal into a first path for the first optical signal and a second path for the first optical signal, wherein the first path for the first optical signal is connected to a first optical stabilizer to stabilize the first optical signal produced by the central node, and the second path for the first optical signal provides the first optical signal to the optical network for distribution to each of the plurality of distributed nodes, wherein the second wavelength has a lower transmission loss than the first wavelength.
