==Splitter, Optical Distribution Network, and Method for Determining Wavelength Corresponding to Optical Filter Structure - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18147378 titled 'Splitter, Optical Distribution Network, and Method for Determining Wavelength Corresponding to Optical Filter Structure

==Simplified Explanation==

The patent application describes a splitter that separates optical signals based on their wavelengths. The splitter consists of an optical input section, multiple optical branch sections, and several optical filter structures. Each filter structure reflects a specific wavelength of light. 

* The splitter includes an optical input section, N optical branch sections, and at least (N−1) optical filter structures.
* Each optical filter structure reflects an optical signal of one wavelength.
* The (N−1) optical filter structures consist of a special optical filter structure and at least (N−3) common optical filter structures.
* The common optical filter structures reflect a common wavelength.
* The special optical filter structures reflect a first/second special wavelength.
* The common wavelengths form an arithmetic sequence, with a tolerance.
* The difference between the first special wavelength and the largest common wavelength is greater than the tolerance.
* The difference between the second special wavelength and the smallest common wavelength is greater than the tolerance.

Potential applications of this technology:

* Optical signal separation and routing in telecommunications networks.
* Optical signal analysis and monitoring in scientific research and industrial applications.
* Optical signal processing in data centers and high-speed computing systems.

Problems solved by this technology:

* Efficient separation and routing of optical signals based on their wavelengths.
* Accurate filtering and reflection of specific wavelengths.
* Minimizing signal loss and interference in optical networks.

Benefits of this technology:

* Improved performance and reliability of optical communication systems.
* Enhanced flexibility and scalability in managing optical signals.
* Higher data transmission rates and capacity in optical networks.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

A splitter includes an optical input section, N optical branch sections, and at least (N−1) optical filter structures. Each optical filter structure reflects an optical signal of one wavelength. The at least (N−1) optical filter structures include a special optical filter structure and at least (N−3) common optical filter structures, and a wavelength of an optical signal reflected by each of the common optical filter structures is a common wavelength. A wavelength of an optical signal reflected by a first/second special optical filter structure is a first/second special wavelength. At least (N−3) common wavelengths constitute an arithmetic sequence, a difference between the first special wavelength and a largest common wavelength is greater than a tolerance of the arithmetic sequence, and a difference between the second special wavelength and a smallest common wavelength is greater than the tolerance of the arithmetic sequence.
