摘要： An optical communication system includes a plurality of optical system nodes, a plurality of optical space switches and a plurality of optical fibers. The plurality of optical system nodes each includes at least one reconfigurable optical add/drop multiplexer (ROADM). The optical system nodes each have at least one client side port and at least one line side port. Each optical space switch is operatively coupled to the line side port of one of the plurality of optical system nodes. Each of the optical fibers couples one of the optical space switches to another of the optical space switches.

摘要： A method of interrogating a WDM optical communication system is provided to obtain one or more performance parameters. In accordance with the method, an optical probe wavelength is generated and possibly modulated in a prescribed manner. The probe signal is transmitted along a selected optical path through the WDM optical communication system for a duration of time that is less than a response time of network elements that impact signal quality along the selected optical path.

摘要： In one embodiment an optoelectronic system can include a photonics interposer having a substrate and a functional interposer structure formed on the substrate, a plurality of through vias carrying electrical signals extending through the substrate and the functional interposer structure, and a plurality of wires carrying signals to different areas of the functional interposer structure. The system can further include one or more photonics device integrally formed in the functional interposer structure, and one or more prefabricated component attached to the functional interposer structure.
