Description
なお、上記の効果は必ずしも限定的なものではなく、上記の効果とともに、または上記の効果に代えて、本明細書に示されたいずれかの効果、または本明細書から把握され得る他の効果が奏されてもよい。
1.本発明の一実施形態に係るシステムの構成
2.光ケーブルが複数の伝送路を有する構成例
3.反射面にMEMSミラーを適用した構成例
まず、図1を参照して、本発明の一実施形態に係るシステムの構成について説明する。図1に示すように、本実施形態に係るシステムは、光送信装置100、光受信装置200、及び光送信装置100と光受信装置200とを接続する光ケーブル300を有して構成されている。
図1においては、1つの光伝送路310を有する光ケーブル300に対応して、光送信装置100が1つの発光部110、1つのレンズ120、1つの発光端130を備える構成を示したが、光ケーブル300が複数の光伝送路310を備えている場合は、光送信装置100の発光部110、レンズ120、及び発光端130を複数設けても良い。同様に、図1においては、1つの光伝送路310を有する光ケーブル300に対応して、光受信装置200が1つの受光部230、1つのレンズ220、1つの受光端210を備える構成を示したが、光ケーブル300が複数の光伝送路を備えている場合は、光受信装置200の受光部230、レンズ220、及び受光端210を複数設けても良い。
C4 = 100.002(λ-700) ・・・(式2)
C6=α/0.0015 ・・・(式3)
T2=10×10[(α-0.0015)/98.5] ・・・(式4)
図10は、MEMSミラーの動作を示す模式図である。図10Aに示すように、MEMSミラーは、ミラー部400、基板410、電極420a~420dで構成される。電極420bと420dの配列方向をX軸430、電極420aと420cの配列方向をY軸440とする。図10Bは、X軸430方向に沿った断面図を示している。図10Bに示すように、電極420dに電圧Vが印加されると、ミラー部400は破線で示した状態から角度θだけ傾斜した状態に可動する。同様に、逆方向の電極420bに電圧Vを印加すると、ミラー部400は逆方向に角度θだけ傾斜した状態になる。
θ=α×V2 ・・・(式5)
と、電気信号を送るための銅線470a~470cを組み合わせた複合ケーブルを用いることで、MEMSミラーに印加される電圧およびその制御信号は、送信装置100または受信装置200から光コネクタ部320,330へ供給される。これにより、光コネクタ部320,330に配置されたMEMSミラーが駆動される。
