摘要:
The invention features the drawbridge assembly and its applications in optical switches, optical crossconnects, optical add/drop multiplexers and variable optical attenuators. In optical switches and optical crossconnects, an array of the drawbridge assemblies can be used to redirect the multiple input lights to multiple outputs. In add/drop multiplexers, the drawbridge assemblies can select the light channels to be added and dropped. In the attenuator embodiment, a vertical mirror is inserted into two fibers, the first one as the input and the second one as output. The drawbridge assembly controls the position of the vertical mirror for blocking a certain portion of the light and enabling the attenuation. The continuous change of the mirror position results in variable attenuation. A series of VOA form a multi-channel VOA system on a single substrate.

An electrical connector (100) provides a housing (1) defining a receiving space (10), a number of contacts (3) received in the housing, and an improved detect means including a first switch contact (4) and a second switch contact (5). The contacts and the switch contacts are embedded in corresponding passageways (111) defined on a mounting wall (11) of the housing. The second switch contact has a body portion (53) and a tail portion (54) curved backwardly from the body portion. The tail portion provides an extension potion (541) extending laterally to be positioned under the first switch contact and be spaced from the first switch contact a distance, and the first switch contact is depressed to engage with the extension portion when an electronic card (7) is inserted into the receiving space of the housing.
摘要:
A radio frequency (RF) transmitter has at least one digital signal processing module and at least one power amplifier module. The digital signal processing module includes at least one digital pre-distortion component arranged to receive at least one complex input signal, perform two-dimensional non-uniform mapping of the complex input signal to a first, in-phase, digital pre-distortion control word and a further, quadrature, digital pre-distortion control word, and output the in-phase and quadrature pre-distortion digital control words. The power amplifier module includes a first, in-phase, array of switch-mode power cells and at least one further, quadrature, array of switch-mode power cells. The two-dimensional non-uniform mapping has a pre-distortion profile at least partly based on an input/output relationship for the power amplifier module arranged to generate an analog RF signal based at least partly on the in-phase and quadrature digital pre-distortion control words.
