Abstract: A method for making a chirped grating device capable of a broad bandwid th for optical communication systems is disclosed. An intrinsically-chirped optical grating is externally strained to alter the range of chirping. The external strain may be induced by a gradient-generating body bonded onto the length of the fiber grating that may be latchably strained so that the grating characteristics may be changed or tuned while avoiding use of a continuous power supply. Various optical networking applications using such dispersion compensating devices are also disclosed.

Abstract: A fiber-optic WDM ring carries communication traffic among a plurality of nodes, each node associated with respective subscriber premises. Remote gain is provided in at least one link of the ring. In specific embodiments ot the invention, the remote gain is applied preferentially to those wavelength channels most in need of amplification. In specific embodiments of the invention, the remote gain is Raman gain.

Abstract: A fiber-optic WDM ring carries communication traffic among a plurality of nodes, each node associated with respective subscriber premises. The WDM ring includes an optical add-drop module (OADM) at each node for adding and dropping signals associated with that node. The WDM ring also includes active terminal equipment at each node for conditioning incoming and outgoing data and for converting between the optical and electrical domains. The OADM at each of at least some nodes, to be referred to as enhanced nodes, is situated at a site physically separated from the powered terminal equipment, and is coupled to the powered terminal equipment via an optical medium. At each enhanced node, traffic not destined for that node is routed through no more than one enclosure on subscriber premises that requires a connection. If there is such enclosure, it contains the OADM.

Abstract: An optical add-drop module (OADM) includes in the through-path exactly two thin-film filters (TFFs) having respective passbands that approximately coincide in wavelength. Each TFF has a respective across-the-band isolation level, representing the smallest isolation achieved at and wavelength within the passband. The respective reflection characteristic curves of the two TFFs are at least partially complementary, such that the OADM isolation level exceeds the logarithmic sum of the across-the-band isolation levels of the respective TFFs.

Abstract: A tunable chromatic dispersion compensator for optical communication systems is disclosed. An optical grating, such as a fiber Bragg grating, non-chirped, linearly chirped or non-linearly chirped, is coated on its outer surface with a coating have a variable diameter and strained is applied to the fiber. The fiber may be latchably strained so that the grating characteristics may be changed or tuned while avoiding use of a continuous power supply. Various optical networking applications using such dispersion compensating devices are also disclosed.

Abstract: In a WDM fiber-optic network, a unique laser transmitter enables signals to be routed at three hierarchical levels: at one level discrimination among signal paths is based on N WDM wavelength channels, at another level discrimination is based on m AM subcarrier frequency channels, and at a third level discrimination is based on n FM subcarrier frequency channels. Thus, a total of Nmn distinguishable optical channels can be accommodated and a like number of users served. The laser transmitter comprises a broadband, tunable semiconductor laser which includes an intracavity, integrated composite reflector to which a tuning voltage and a FM dither signal are applied, an intracavity gain section to which drive current is applied, and an extracavity, integrated electroabsorption modulator to which an information (e.g., data, voice, video) signal and an AM dither signal are applied. The tuning voltage provides coarse wavelength tuning among N WDM channels, whereas the FM dither signal produces an additional m channels via FM-SCM. The AM dither likewise produces an additional n channels via AM-SCM.
