  • Patent number: 11909514
    Abstract: Disclosed are a reconfigurable optical add-drop multiplexer, and an optical signal processing method. The reconfigurable optical add-drop multiplexer includes: at least one optical cross-connect device and at least two optical signal processing devices. Each optical signal processing device includes a wavelength-selective switch and a filter. The wavelength-selective switch is configured to perform wavelength-based allocation on inputted dense wavelength division multiplexing optical signals and input the dense wavelength division multiplexing optical signals into the filter. The filter is configured to separate optical signals outputted by the wavelength-selective switch into single-channel optical signals, and multiplex a plurality of single-channel optical signals outputted by the optical cross-connect device and input the multiplexed single-channel optical signals into the wavelength-selective switch.

  • Patent number: 11557959
    Abstract: An automatic dead zone time optimization system in a primary-side regulation flyback power supply continuous conduction mode (CCM), including a closed loop formed by a control system, including a single output digital to analog converter (DAC) midpoint sampling module, a digital control module, a current detection module, a dead zone time calculation module and a pulse-width modulation (PWM) driving module, and a controlled synchronous rectification primary-side regulation flyback converter. A primary-side current is sampled using a DAC Sampling mechanism to calculate a secondary-side average current, so as to obtain a primary-side average current and a secondary-side average current, in the case of CCM. A secondary-side current is input into the dead zone time calculation module to obtain a reasonable dead zone time; and the PWM driving module is jointly controlled by a primary-side regulation loop and the obtained dead zone time.
