Here, some modes of the optical signals are allocated to power, and other modes of the optical signals are allocated to data.

An optical receiver used in a multi-mode optical transmission system according to an embodiment of the present invention includes an optical electric unit for converting an optical signal having a mode allocated to power into electricity; And a light detector for detecting data of an optical signal having a mode allocated as data.

Since the multi-mode optical transmission method and system according to the present invention transmits the multi-mode optical signals to the optical receiver through the multi-mode optical cable, it is possible to transmit high capacity data. In particular, since the optical receiver converts and utilizes an optical signal in a mode in which power is allocated to electricity and uses a multi-mode optical cable, the system can realize a low power / powerless network.

In addition, the multi-mode optical transmission method and system sets the number of modes according to the environment of the optical receiver, for example, the power and bandwidth required by the subscriber, it is possible to realize an optimized transmission system.

Multi-mode optical signals output from the optical transmitter 100 are transmitted through the multi-mode optical cable 102. As shown in FIG. 1, the optical signals may be transmitted with different paths within the multi-mode optical cable 102.

The light detector 112 detects data from an optical signal to which data is assigned. Of course, the light detector 112 may transfer the detected data to the subscriber.

Although not shown in FIG. 1, the optical receiver 106 generates receiver information according to a pilot mode optical signal transmitted from the optical transmitter 100, and transmits the generated receiver information through the multi-mode optical cable 102.
