Abstract:
Provided is an external cavity laser using a multilayered thin film filter and an optical transmitter having the same. The external cavity laser may include a semiconductor laser diode to output an optical signal, a lens to cause the optical signal output from the semiconductor laser diode to converge, a multilayered thin film filter to receive the optical signal passed through the lens and to pass the optical signal in a bandpass wavelength range, and a partial reflector to transmit the optical signal transmitted through the multilayered thin film filter to an optical fiber.
Abstract:
A converged passive optical network (CPON) and a data transmission method are disclosed. The CPON is a combination of a time division multiple access-passive optical network (TDMA-PON) and an orthogonal frequency division multiple access-passive optical network (OFDMA-PON) and is able to dynamically controlling a bandwidth for upstream signal transmission through allocation of multiple subcarriers to each single optical network unit (ONU).
Abstract:
A modulation method of an optical modem and a signal transmission apparatus performing the method are disclosed. The modulation method of the optical modem includes an optical interface providing a signal to a light source, a photo detector receiving reflected light by an optical link when output light from the light source based on the provided signal is reflected by the optical link, the photo detector measuring and determining characteristics of the optical link using the reflected light, and the optical modem determining a power level and a modulation method for each subcarrier based on the characteristics of the optical link.
Abstract:
A wired/wireless converged media access control (MAC) adaptor and a method for transmitting a frame using the same. The wired/wireless converged MAC adaptor may include a service network interface (SNI) to transmit a MAC frame corresponding to a wired or wireless service, or common public radio interface (CPRI) data, a frame conversion unit to convert, into an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) frame, a wired/wireless converged MAC frame having a common frame structure of the MAC frame corresponding to the wired or wireless service or the CPRI data, and an OFDM interface configured to transmit the OFDM frame to an optical OFDM modem by dynamically allocating sub-carriers based on data transmission characteristics.
