Patents by Inventor Walter Probster

Walter Probster has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Method and system for optimizing the pulse form of an amplitude modulated optical signal
    Patent number: 7103286
    Abstract: The influences on transmission quality caused by chirp and self-phase modulation are at least largely corrected by way of an optimally set operating point of the modulator (2). Suitable criteria are obtained in control loops in order to maintain the optimal setting.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 1, 2000
    Date of Patent: September 5, 2006
    Assignee: Siemens Aktiengesellschaft
    Inventors: Ullrich Wünsche, Walter Pröbster
  • Circuit carrier with integrated, active, optical functions
    Patent number: 6324328
    Abstract: A circuit carrier includes several layers of at least one insulating material and conductor structures located on or in the layers. At least one optical layer is embedded on both sides in other layers.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 16, 1999
    Date of Patent: November 27, 2001
    Assignee: Siemens Aktiengesellschaft
    Inventors: Torsten Mehlhorn, Peter Birkholtz, Walter Pröbster
  • Configuration for transmitting high-power pumping light
    Publication number: 20010021062
    Abstract: The power of the pumping light to be transmitted is limited by the Raman effect. In order to alleviate the problems associated with this, pumping signals having different wavelengths are transmitted via a number of optical fibers, are combined in a coupling device at the fiber amplifier, and are fed into an amplifier fiber.

  • Circuit carrier with an optical layer and optoelectronic component
    Patent number: 6285808
    Abstract: A circuit carrier includes several layers of at least one insulating material and conductor structures located on or in the layers. At least one of the layers is an optical layer which is embedded on both sides in other layers. An optoelectronic component for a circuit carrier is also provided.
