  • Patent number: 10187173
    Abstract: In the wavelength selective switch provided in the present invention, at least one optical element is successively arranged in the wavelength selective switch according to a sequence of processing optical signals. The at least one optical element receives a service optical signal from a service laser, receives a monitoring optical signal from a monitoring laser, and performs same optical signal processing on the service optical signal and the monitoring optical signal according to a processing function of the at least one optical element, where a wavelength of the service optical signal and a wavelength of the monitoring optical signal are different. A service optical signal processed by the at least one optical element and a monitoring optical signal processed by at least one optical element are output, where the monitoring optical signal processed by the at least one optical element is used for monitoring performance of the wavelength selective switch.

  • Patent number: 7221872
    Abstract: The invention discloses an on-line dispersion compensation device for a wavelength division optical transmission system. The device is consisted of two optical path selectors and at least one chirped grating fiber unit. The chirped grating fiber unit is consisted of two chirped grating fibers with same wavelength band and connected oppositely. In addition, the chirped grating fiber unit is serially connected between the appropriate ports of the two optical path selectors. The invention applies a structure that combines a chirped grating fiber unit with two optical path selectors. The structure is suitable to on-line dispersion compensation in a DWDM system and has low insertion loss. When only a few wavelengths need to be compensated, the structure makes dispersion compensation with low cost, low insertion loss and compensating a large dispersion value. For single channel or broadband compensation, the invention provides dispersion compensation without through OADM or MUX/DEMUX filtering.
