Description
本発明では、図6に示すような波長多重信号についても安定な分離出力が得られるようにするものである。
上記分光手段は、複数の入力側光路から入力された光を分光して複数の出力側光路に出力するものであり、
上記光路切替器は、光路の切替えによって該光路切替器の入力側光路並び順を入れ替えて出力することで上記分光手段に入力する光路を入れ替えるものであり、
上記制御器は、上記光路切替器を制御して上記分光手段に入力する光路の入れ替えを外部からの操作によって行うものであり、
上記光路切替器と上記分光手段とは偏波無依存のものであり、
上記光路切替器の入力側光路と上記分光手段の出力側光路、および該光路切替器と該分光手段とをつなぐ光路を偏波保持型の光路とすることで、
上記光路切替器への入力光の入力側光路並び順についての相対的偏波構成に、上記分光手段からの出力光の入力側光路並び順に対応する出力側光路並び順についての相対的偏波構成を同じにしたものである。
この構成によって、分光手段2に入力する光路を入れ替えることが可能となり、上記AWGの特定の出力光路に、複数の光路からそれぞれの波長について抽出した光信号を得ることができる。
また、ミリ波周波数帯のRoF信号におけるミリ波の収容には、波長多重化が容易な波長の光を用いて収容する。例えば、RoF信号の送信の際に選択したうちの搬送波と同じ波長の光を用いる。
