Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a conductive, compliant and deformable boot for an optical fiber or other cable assembly which provides a traditional cable strain relief function and extends from the body of the connector to form an electrically conductive shield over a cable receptacle aperture when the cable assembly is plugged into the aperture. SOLUTION: The boot deforms slightly upon insertion of the cable assembly and compresses against a mating component to form a shield against electrostatic discharge which can be accumulated on the cable or card and also to shield electromagnetic emissions entering or leaving a circuit card package. The boot also shields emissions when two cable assemblies are mated together by deforming the boot slightly upon the mating of the two cable assemblies and then returning the boot to its original state when the assemblies are disconnected.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a package for a new type laser array. SOLUTION: One implementation form is an optical interconnection module including a silicon carrier, a communication integrated circuit mounted on the silicon carrier, and an optical integrated circuit mounted on the silicon carrier. The optical integrated circuit is a flip-chip, and electrically connects to the communication integrated circuit by an electric path in the silicon carrier. A light path in the silicon carrier conducts optical connection between the optical integrated circuit and an optical link. COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a comprehensive system for writing information on an inexpensive rotary medium similar to the conventional CD-ROM technology. SOLUTION: A laser writable information storing blank includes a substantially plane disk consisting of a material allowed to be changed by the irradiation of a laser beam. The blank medium preferably includes a spiral pattern type metallic track pattern 34. The track pattern 34 provides two reference edges 37 and an accurate distance for reading out/writing binary information stored between adjacent track parts is determined from these edges 37.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To perform a correct control for positioning information for both purposes of reading operation and writing operation by using the same light dithering principle to be used for the purpose of a servo tracking of a radial direction in the dithering of the direction of layers of a multilayered disk. SOLUTION: A laser beam from a laser 83 is at first supplied to a beam splitter 86 and the small part of the laser beam is introduced to a mirror 85. The mirror 85 is made to dither to introduce the laser beam, for example, on the reference track 34 of a layer 35a being in a recording medium 30. A reflected light from the reference track 34 in the medium 30 is returned to a photodetector 94 with the mirror 85 and the beam splitter 86 and its electric signal is supplied to a tracking detector 95. On the other hand, one part of the laser beam introduced to a beam splitter 92 is introduced to a prescribed layer being in the medium 30, for example, a layer 35b. The control is performed by a read/write control signal line to be supplied to an enable switch 96.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an integrated optical transducer assembly and a method of forming the same. SOLUTION: This integrated optical transducer assembly includes a substrate and a photoelectronic array attached to the substrate. The photoelectronic array further includes a plurality of individual sub-units which are bonded to each other to form a single array. The subunits include a defined number of individual photoelectronic elements associated with them, respectively. By using elastomeric material, an original alignment between the plurality of the subunits is maintained. COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an apparatus and method for forming a step-like construction for connection of optical waveguides between a card and a backplane. SOLUTION: Optical waveguides 20 and conductors are embedded in a card 10, and ends 45 terminating at the step-like construction exist therein. Optical fiber ribbons 50 project from the ends 45. Also, a guide structure 60 is connected to the ends 45. The guide structure 60 has grooves for guiding and aligning the ribbons 50. Optical waveguides 25 and conductors are embedded in a backplane 70 as well, and have ends 75 terminating at the step-like construction and an aperture 90 having a slope. A guide structure 80 is connected to the ends 75. The aperture 90 having the slope accepts and guides the ribbons 50 and brings the ribbons into tight proximity to the optical waveguides 25, thereby forming the step-like construction consisting of the connected waveguides between the card 10 and the backplane 70.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To write in information on an inexpensive rotary medium by dividing a laser beam to a far side beam and a front side beam, dividing the front side beam to a writing first beam and a tracking second beam and back/forth vibrating changing an irradiation point of a tracking beam while traversing a track. SOLUTION: When the beam is split by beam splitters 85a, 85b, they are returned to a photodetector 84 by arranged shutters 86, 87, and a return of a tracking signal given to a filter 102 is not disturbed. The beam from a laser light source is split to two beams by the beam splitter 85, and one of them is led to a nearer surface of a multilayer medium through the shutter 86, and the other is led to the farther surface of the multilayer medium 30. When the shutter 86 is opened, the shutter 87 is closed, and when the shutter 87 is opened, the shutter 86 is closed, and the information from the medium is read and written separately.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method and device for testing, quickly, plural optical fibers in a multi-optical fiber cable. SOLUTION: One of test stations 10 and 12 connects an array connector 16 while the other does many discrete connectors 20. With optical input/output port of an OTDR unit 22 connected to each of the test stations through an optical switch 23, the optical switch 23 connects the port to only one of such stations at a time. In each station, the signal from the optical switch 23 is split into many light paths with a splitter, and the splitter also returns the signal from the light path of the OTDR 22 through the optical switch 23. Since various light paths in each station contain optical fibers jumpers with different length, a single test signal pulse from the OTDR 22 is reflected as a pulse train on many interfaces in the test cable.

Abstract:
An improved computer system may include a server carrying a computer processor in a Fibre Channel over Convergence Enhanced Ethernet (FCoCEE) network. The system may also include a reservation system in communication with the server that utilizes enhanced transmission selection (ETS) to reserve bandwidth for a priority group by scheduling bandwidth for the priority group based upon a projected workload.
