Journal ArticleDOI
A wavelength division multiple access network for computer communication
TL;DR: A first-generation design, called Rainbow, for optical wavelength division multiaccess (WDMA) computer networks is described, which takes the form of a direct detection, circuit-switched metropolitan-area-network (MAN) backbone consisting of 32 IBM PD/2's as gateway stations.
Patent
Optical wavelength division multiplexer for coupling to data sources and sinks, wherein at least two data sources and sinks operate with different communication protocols
Michael M. Choy,Paul E. Green,William E. Hall,F.J. Janniello,Jeff Kenneth Kravitz,Karen Liu,Rajiv Ramaswami,Franklin F. Tong +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe a WDM with a plurality of Input/Output cards (IOCs) coupled to I/O specific media (fiber or copper) and to two coaxial cables.
Patent
Wavelength sorter and its application to planarized dynamic wavelength routing
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a method and apparatus for achieving wavelength sorting multiplexer/demultiplexer and its application to the implementation of planarized dynamic wavelength routing.
Journal ArticleDOI
Vertical cavity devices as wavelength selective waveguides
TL;DR: In this paper, a low-index waveguide demultiplexer was constructed for TE mode at 0.75 /spl mu/m operation using AlGaAs/AlAs multilayers and a polymer top waveguide.
Journal ArticleDOI
Crosstalk and interference penalty in all-optical networks using static wavelength routers
Chung-Sheng Li,Franklin F. Tong +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a worst case methodology is used to derive the upper bound of the interference and crosstalk penalty in an all-optical network using static wavelength routers, and it is shown that the penalty strongly depends on the linewidth of the laser source.
