Accompanying drawing explanation
By reading the detailed description done non-limiting example with reference to the following drawings, other features, objects and advantages of the present invention will become more obvious:
Fig. 1 is fundamental block diagram of the present invention;
Fig. 2 is the structural map of one embodiment of the invention;
Fig. 3 is commercial Application embodiment of the present invention.
Embodiment
Below in conjunction with specific embodiment, the present invention is described in detail.Following examples will contribute to those skilled in the art and understand the present invention further, but not limit the present invention in any form.It should be pointed out that to those skilled in the art, without departing from the inventive concept of the premise, some distortion and improvement can also be made.These all belong to protection scope of the present invention.
On directly perceived, the structure of the asymmetrical arrayed-waveguide grating routers of N*M (N>M) port number directly can remove output port N-M+1 to output port N this N-M output port by the array grating router of N*N port number symmetry and obtain.But this structure can require that some input port laser wavelength range of adjustment is very large, and such as input port N-1 and input port N require that laser instrument can at λ 1~ λ nbetween regulate.This is very harsh to the cost requirement of device.
The asymmetrical arrayed-waveguide grating routers of port number provided by the present invention, can avoid this kind of situation to the restriction of structure.
Figure 1 shows that the fundamental block diagram of the present invention N*N arrayed-waveguide grating routers structure N*M arrayed-waveguide grating routers.For N*M arrayed-waveguide grating routers, its N number of input port is N number of input port of N*N arrayed-waveguide grating routers, and its M output port is that N number of input port of N*N arrayed-waveguide grating routers is obtained by photo-coupler coupling.
Fig. 1 structure has following two point patterns:
(1) the wavelength regulation scope of the optical sender of N number of input port is M times of wavelength interval.Illustrate, if structure is spaced apart the 16*4 arrayed-waveguide grating routers of 100GHz, the wavelength regulation scope of the optical sender of each input port is 400GHz, namely 3.2nm.
(2) non-blocking.When any input port is regulated in its wavelength coverage, produce when can not regulate in its wavelength coverage with other any input port and conflict.
Fig. 2, for KM*KM arrayed-waveguide grating routers, describes the detail constructing KM*M structure by KM*KM structure.Input port 1 is λ to the wavelength tuning range of input port M 1~ λ m, the wavelength tuning range of input port M+1 to input port 2M is λ m+1~ λ 2Mthe wavelength tuning range of input port (K-1) M+1 to input port KM is λ (K-1) M+1~ λ kM.The output port 1 of the KM*M arrayed-waveguide grating routers constructed is the output port 1 of KM*KM arrayed-waveguide grating routers, the output port 2 of the KM*M arrayed-waveguide grating routers constructed is coupled by the output port 2 of KM*KM arrayed-waveguide grating routers and output port (K-1) M+2 and obtains, and the output port 3 of the KM*M arrayed-waveguide grating routers constructed is coupled by the output port 3 of KM*KM arrayed-waveguide grating routers and output port (K-1) M+3 and obtains ... the output port M of the KM*M arrayed-waveguide grating routers constructed is coupled by the output port M of KM*KM arrayed-waveguide grating routers and output port KM and obtains.
Fig. 3 describes the typical apply of unsymmetric structure in Next Generation Access.This application is based on the concept in laser instrument pond.The laser instrument of N number of Wavelength tunable is positioned over respectively the input port of N*M arrayed-waveguide grating routers, forms a laser instrument pond.M output port of arrayed-waveguide grating routers is connected to different networks respectively.For each tunable laser, by being adjusted to certain specific wavelength, certain specific port can be exported.Like this, when certain region (in such as Fig. 2 network 1) required bandwidth ratio is larger, more laser instrument can be outputted to the port corresponding to this region, thus achieve the flexible dispatching of resource.In addition when the bandwidth demand of whole network is lower, some laser instrument of closedown that can be suitable, thus realize energy-conservation, improve the energy efficiency of whole network.
What the present invention proposed utilizes the arrayed-waveguide grating routers of port number symmetry to construct the method for the arrayed-waveguide grating routers of port number unsymmetric structure, due to the reversibility of optical path of arrayed-waveguide grating routers, structure situation output port number being greater than to the asymmetric arrayed-waveguide grating routers of input port number is applicable equally.
Above specific embodiments of the invention are described.It is to be appreciated that the present invention is not limited to above-mentioned particular implementation, those skilled in the art can make various distortion or amendment within the scope of the claims, and this does not affect flesh and blood of the present invention.
