Abstract: A variable optical attenuator (VOA) may include an input collimator with an input fiber connected on one side and an output collimator with an output fiber connected on one side, where the collimators are on a same surface of a VOA enclosure. A retroreflector may receive a light beam from the input collimator and reflect the light beam to the output collimator. The VOA may include an attenuation element positioned between the input collimator and the retroreflector and/or another attenuation element positioned between the retroreflector and the output collimator to provide variable attenuation to the light beam. The attenuation elements may be moved to set an attenuation level by one or more adjustment elements such as a miniature motor. The attenuation element may include a gradient index (GRIN) element, a polarizer, a neutral density filter, or a wavelength tunable filter.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for NES (network energy savings) operations in a network. A network node may transmit to user equipments (UEs) an indication about an NES operation activation for one or more cells. The UE(s) may send a reconfiguration request to modify the NES operation for one or more cells, for example to avoid a degradation in service that may negatively impact key performance indicators or quality of experience. In response, the network node may modify the NES operation. The network node may then send an updated indication about the modified NES operation for the one or more cells.
