  • Patent number: 11012175
    Abstract: An intelligence-defined optical tunnel network system includes a plurality of pods. Any one of the pods includes a plurality of optical add-drop sub-systems (OADS), which are configured to perform data transmission, respectively, through a plurality of Top-of-Rack (ToR) switches between a corresponding plurality of servers. Any one of the OADSs includes a first transmission module and a second transmission module. The first transmission module is configured to perform data transmission at a first frequency band, and the first transmission module of any one of the OADSs connected to the first transmission module of the adjacent OADSs to form a first transmission ring. The second transmission module is configured to perform data transmission at a second frequency band differed to the first frequency band, and the second transmission module of any one of the OADSs connected to the second transmission module of the adjacent OADSs to form a second transmission ring.

  • Patent number: 10931393
    Abstract: An intelligence-defind optical tunnel network system includes a first tier network and a second tier network. The first tier network includes multiple pods, any one of which includes multiple Optical Add-Drop Sub-systems (OADS) configured to transmit data between corresponding servers through ToR switches. The second tier network includes multiple Optical Switch Interconnect Sub-systems (OSIS). Any two of the OSISs transmit a corresponding lateral optical signal via a first line correspondingly. Any two adjacent OSISs are coupled to the OADSs in the same pod of the first tier via multiple optical paths respectively.

  • Patent number: 10615902
    Abstract: An intelligence-defined optical tunnel network system includes multiple Optical Switch Interconnect Sub-systems (OSIS). Any one of the OSIS includes a receiving sub-module, an output sub-module, an interconnection fabric module and an optical switching sub-module. The receiving module is configured to receive multiple first and third upstream optical signals from first and second Optical Add-Drop Sub-systems (OADS) corresponding to the first and the second pods. The output sub-module is configured to output multiple second and fourth downstream optical signals to the first and second OADS. The interconnect circuit sub-module is configured to connect adjacent two of the OSISs and any two of the OSISs transmit a corresponding lateral transmission optical signal via a first line correspondingly. The optical switching sub-module is configured to transmit optical signals between the receiving sub-module, the output sub-module, and the interconnection fabric module.

  • Patent number: 5284144
    Abstract: A hyperthermia applicator/MRI probe assembly for hyperthermia treatment of a subject. The assembly includes a hyperthermia applicator for heating target regions of a subject and a MRI probe which is utilized to monitor temperatures within the heating region. The hyperthermia applicator and MRI probe are coupled to a control system which receives information from the MRI probe and utilizes the information to control the hyperthermia applicator so as to maintain constant, desired temperatures within the heating region. The hyperthermia applicator/MRI probe assembly of the present invention allows for temperature control within about 0.5.degree. C.
