OPTICAL CONTROL APPARATUS, OPTICAL TRANSMISSION PATH MONITORING METHOD AND OPTICAL ROUTE CONTROL METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240097781 titled 'OPTICAL CONTROL APPARATUS, OPTICAL TRANSMISSION PATH MONITORING METHOD AND OPTICAL ROUTE CONTROL METHOD
Simplified Explanation
The optical control apparatus described in the abstract includes a route setting unit that sets optical routes in different connection units to control the transmission of light.
- The apparatus has a first connection unit that connects to two optical transmission paths and a second connection unit that connects to the first and second optical transmission paths.
- The route setting unit sets a first optical route in the first connection unit and a second optical route in the second connection unit, which can be conductive or non-conductive.
Potential Applications
The technology can be applied in optical communication systems, optical networks, and fiber optic switching systems.
Problems Solved
This technology solves the problem of efficiently controlling the transmission of light signals in optical systems with multiple paths.
Benefits
