Abstract: An optical network monitor and a method for monitoring the optical signals of an optical network including a spectrograph that includes a detector array, a processor and outputs. The network monitor receives an optical input signal which includes individual channels. The optical signal is transmitted onto the spectrograph which disperses the optical signal into the individual channels. The individual channels are directed onto the detector array so that the channels are spaced across the detector array. The detector array detects the channels in parallel and transmits to the processor channel parameter data which is processes the parameter data through internal algorithms to produce the outputs.

Abstract: A method passively locks and phases an array of fiber amplifiers in a fiber amplifier system that emits a beam, such as a laser beam. The method locks the fiber amplifiers so that the fiber amplifiers operate at same or similar frequencies. The method samples a small portion of the emitted beam in a far-field around a central lobe on an optical axis and then couples this portion of emitted beam back into the array of fiber amplifiers. The fiber amplifiers may be phased so that the emitted beam concentrates its energy around the central lobe in the far-field. Phasing may be achieved by using an aperture, for example, to restrict the portion of the emitted beam to be coupled back to a restricted region around the optical axis.
