Abstract: An apparatus capable of operating as an interleaver, a deinterleaver, a filter, or some combination thereof is described. An optical device that can be configured to multiple different optical components. In one embodiment, the optical device can be configured to operate as a single double-pass interlayer/deinterleaver, as two single-pass interleaver/deinterleavers, or as one or more filters. In one embodiment, the optical device has ports on two or more planes and a birefringent element that occupies the two or more planes. Connections between the two or more planes can be made by walk-off crystals internal to the optical device or between ports by connections that are external to the optical device to configure the optical device.

Abstract: Interleaver/deinterleavers for combining/separating optical channels. An interleaver/deinterleaver is “folded” when an optical signal follows an optical path that passes through a birefringent element multiple times. Double-pass refers to optical signals following a (folded) path through the birefringent element twice. Multi-pass refers to optical signals following a (folded) path through the birefringent element multiple times. When operating as a deinterleaver, the interleaver/deinterleaver separates an optical signal (e.g., WDM signal) into subsets of optical signals (e.g., even and odd ITU channels). When operating as an interleaver, the interleaver/deinterleaver mixes subsets of optical signals into a multiplexed optical signal. The interleaver/deinterleaver can be used to increase the bandwidth of an optical network. For example, the interleaver/deinterleaver can be used to interface components designed for a first channel spacing (e.g., 100 GHz) to components designed for a second channel spacing (e.g., 200 GHz). Folded interleaver/deinterleavers cause dispersion because the speed at which the ordinary beam of an optical signal passes through the birefringent element is different that the speed at which the extraordinary beam of the optical signal passes through the birefringent element. In order to reduce or eliminate dispersion, the polarization of the optical signal is reversed for alternating passes through the birefringent crystal. For example, if a signal is horizontally polarized for a first pass through the birefringent crystal, the signal is rotated to be vertically polarized for a second pass through the birefringent crystal. For a third pass through the birefringent element, the signal is rotated to be horizontally polarized.

Abstract translation: 用于组合/分离光通道的交织器/去交织器。 当光信号跟随穿过双折射元件的光路多次时，交织器/解交织器被“折叠”。 双通道是指通过双折射元件的（折叠）路径之后的光信号两次。 多通道是指多次通过双折射元件的（折叠）路径之后的光信号。 当作为解交织器操作时，交织器/去交织器将光信号（例如，WDM信号）分离成光信号（例如偶数和奇数ITU信道）的子集。 当作为交织器操作时，交织器/解交织器将光信号的子集合成复用的光信号。 交织器/去交织器可以用于增加光网络的带宽。 例如，交织器/解交织器可以用于将为第一信道间隔（例如，100GHz）设计的组件接口设计成用于第二信道间隔（例如，200GHz）的组件。 由于光信号的普通光束通过双折射元件的速度与光信号的非寻常光束通过双折射元件的速度不同，所以折叠的交织器/解交织器引起色散。 为了减少或消除色散，对于交替穿过双折射晶体，光信号的偏振反转。 例如，如果信号被水平极化以进行通过双折射晶体的第一次通过，则信号被旋转以被垂直偏振，以进行双折射晶体的第二次通过。 对于通过双折射元件的第三遍，信号被旋转以进行水平极化。

Abstract: A signal transmission system for a peer-to-peer optical network. The system includes an optical line terminal, an optical distribution node, and a plurality of optical network units. The optical network unit and the optical distribution node are connected in a tree distribution having an ordered relation. The optical line terminal transmits optic signals via the optical distribution node to a first ordered optical network unit, to allow the first ordered optical network unit to process the optic signals and to generate combined optic signals, which are transmitted to a next ordered optical network unit via the optical distribution node. The above steps are iterated, until a last ordered optical network unit transmits combined optic signals to the optical line terminal via the optical distribution node.
