Abstract

Dispositif coupleur optique réciproque pour connecter un guide de lumière à plusieurs guides. Il comporte, selon un mode préféré de réalisation, une structure biconique 10 prolongée par deux barreaux mélangeurs 20a, 20b. Les dimensions de la structure sont déterminées en sorte que le diagramme de rayonnement dans le plan médian 2 est demi-sphérique quel que soit le sens de prorogation des modes lumineuses selon l'axe 2 d'une extrémité à l'autre 21-22. Les guides sont répartis en deux groupes couplés respectivement aux deux extrémités. L'invention s'applique notamment aux systèmes de transmission optique ne comportant pas d'unité centrale émettrice.
