`
`FIELD OF THE INVENTION
`
`This invention relates generally to optical communication hardware, and more
`specifically to hardware designed for use in dense wavelength division multiplexed
`(DWDM) systems. The invention describes a new device design for providing two
`important functions of importance in emerging DWDM systems: (1) reconfigurable add-
`drop of individual wavelength channels, and (2) spectra] equalization of wavelength
`channels.

`
`
`Overview and Objective
`
`Emerging DWDM communication systems are in need of a robust and low-cost device
`technology for providing dynamic optical add-drop of wavelength channels at node sites
`as shown in Figures 1 and 2. Such a device -~ referred to as an optical add-drop
`multiplexer (OADM) -- should by remotely reconfigurable through software control. It is
`desirable to have complete control at the granularity of a single wavelength, meaning any
`individual wavelength channel can be addedfdropped by the device.
`
`Long-haul and ultra-long-haul applications require the OADM to support a large channel
`count {80 channels today, heading to 160 channels or more in the future). Therefore, a
`technology that is intrinsically scalable to such channel counts is needed. Moreover, it is
`important that the optical loss introduced by the device be independent (or only weakly
`dependent) on the number of channels. The device should also have low polarization

`
`dependent loss (PDL) and low polarization mode dispersion (PMD). A general set of
`device specifications is outlined in Appendix D.
`
`Figures 3 and 4 illustrate two basic approaches, parallel and serial, to constructing a
`dynamic OADM. The parallel architecture is intrinsically scalable to large channel
`counts, and is the general approach taken in this invention. The serial scheme has various
`limitations as noted in Figure 4.
`
`A parallel architecture based on fi'ee-space optics has been previously described in Ref. 1.
`A block diagram of this device is shown in Figure 5. It has four fiber ports: (1) input, (2)
`pass-through, (3) add, and (4) drop. One circulator is used to combine the input and pass-
`througb ports onto one fiber, and another simulator combines the add and drop ports to a
`second fiber. Figure 6 shows a graphic of the optical system configuration of the OADM
`device described in Ref. 1. Two coupling lenses are implemented to convert the light
`paths from these two fibers to free space. Wavelength separation and routing are done in
`free space. The device utilizes a ruled diffraction grating to separate the input light into
`its constituent channels. A binary micrornachined mirror array redirects each of the
`individual channels to one of two outputs. Each mirror in the linear array either
`retroreflects its corresponding channel back along the original input path towards the
`pass~through port, or it reflects its channel to the drop port.
`
`While this architecture is attractive in the sense that it is compact and scalable to high
`channel count, it also has a number of limitations. First, the design requires precise
`alignment of components that makes assembly during fabrication complex and
`expensive. Second, no provisions are provided for maintaining the relative alignment of
`the optical components so that the system performance may degrade over time, or in the
`presence of shock and vibrations, or due to a temperature change. Third, it requires all
`the add and drop wavelengths to enter and leave the device on single fibers. In other
`words, additional means must be provided to multiplex the add channels onto a single
`fiber and to demultiplex the drop channels from the single fiber output from the device.
`This additional muxfdernux requirement can lead to significant additional expense.
`
`What is needed is an improved flee-space architecture that overcomes tirese limitations.
`
`Description of the Invention
`
`The OADM device architecture disclosed here has all the positive attributes of a compact,
`parallel design, and also overcomes existing limitations by providing (1) a more versatile
`architecture with multiple physical add and drop ports, (2) analog mirrors under servo
`control that loosen fabrication tolerances and provide self-alignment to correct for
`component drift during operation, (3) additional optics to provide the servo feedback
`signal, and (4) a servo system scheme that provides for dynamic spectral equalization on
`a channel-by—channel basis.

`
`OADM Architectures
`
`Three different OADM architectures disclosed in the present invention are shown in
`Figures 7-9. All of these architectures provide for dynamic drop of one or more
`wavelength channels on any one of multiple drop ports. The “wavelength separation and
`routing” (WSR) function is common to all three architectures and is performed using
`free-space optics and silicon micromirrors. The optical loss of the WSR unit can be fairly
`low, its value being determined by the diffraction efficiency of a grating or similar
`dispersive device used for wavelength separation. A typical value is in the range from 2 -
`4 dB. For the preferred case in which only one wavelength is dropped on each drop port,
`then no additional wavelength demultiplexing is required before the signals carried by the
`respective channels are received by photodetectors. The three approaches of Figs. 7-9
`differ primarily in the way in which the add function is implemented.
`
`The first of these (Fig. 7) is designed for one-way optical propagation. It uses a combiner
`(or lxN coupler; e.g., the 1x16 broadband coupler sold by Newport Corp., Irvine, CA,
`product model number F-CPL-Blo350) for injecting the add channels into the pass-
`through port. While use of a combiner is straightforward, the associated optical loss can
`be large (e.g., the 1x16 Newport coupler may have up to 14.5 dB of loss). For those
`situations where the loss can be tolerated, this is suitable approach.
`
`The second architecture (Fig. 8) is designed for bi-directional operation and has better
`loss performance compared to the first embodiment. Two WSR units are utilized, with
`one unit providing dynamic drop and the other dynamic add. This architecture is very
`general, with no fundamental restrictions on the wavelengths that can be added or
`dropped (other than those restrictions imposed by the overall communication system).
`
`The third architecture (Fig. 9) is also bi-directional, but uses only one WSR unit.
`Circulators are situated on all of the physical inputfoutput ports, allowing for two-way
`optical propagation. This design has the restriction that at each of the addldrop ports, the
`add and drop wavelengths must be the same.

`Free-Space Optical Embodiments
`
`One embodiment of the present invention is shown in Figure 10. The inputioutput
`consists of a linear array of fiber collimators. Such collirnators are well known in the art
`and are comprised of a collimating lens and ferrule-mounted fiber packaged together in a
`mechanically rigid stainless steel or glass tube (e.g., see collimators made by ADC
`Photonics, Inc., Minneapolis, MN, www.adc.corn). The collimators can be positioned in
`a linear array by, for example, means of a V-groove array made out of any of a variety of
`materials including silicon, plastic, or ceramic. The top collimator is designated the
`input, the second collimator is designated the pass-through, and the remaining collimators
`are designated as drop ports.
`
`Mold—wavelength light from the input collimator is directed to a ruled diffraction grating.
`The grating separates the different wavelength channels into different diffraction angles.

`
`In the preferred embodiment, -1 order diffraction is assumed. A focusing lens receives
`the diffracted light and focuses it onto a linear micromirror array positioned in the back
`focal plane. The lens has the property that it brings the different wavelength channels to
`focus at separate spatial locations such that each channel is associated with a unique
`focused spot. Each wavelength channel is associated with a single mirror in the
`micromirror array. Figure 10 illustrates only three wavelengths for simplicity. Figure 11
`shows a close—up view of the micromirror array, with each of the three wavelengths
`falling on its respective mirror.
`
`Each of the mirrors in the micromirror array reflects its associated wavelength channel
`back through the focusing lens, to the grating, and back towards one of output ports. This
`requires the micromirrors to be dynamically adjustable with at least one axis of rotation.
`The rotational motion should be under analog control, so that the angles can be
`continuous adjusted to scan across all possible output collimator ports. Various types of
`micromachined mirrors and deflectors exist in the art. One prior art implementation is
`shown here in Figure 12. This is an array of reflective ribbons, the position of each
`ribbon being under electrostatic control (made by Silicon Light Machines, Inc.,
`Sunnyvale, CA). An adaptation of such a ribbon array can be used in the present
`invention to provide the micromirror fimction, with each ribbon in the array acting as a
`separately controllable mirror.
`
`In the preferred embodiment, the grating is placed in the front focal plane of the focusing
`lens, thereby producing a telecentric optical system. A telecentric system has the
`property that the chief rays of the focused beams are all parallel to each other and
`generally parallel to the optical axis. In this application, the telecentric design allows the
`reflected beams to efficiently couple back into the output collimators, with little
`translational walk-off error (perpendicular to the vertical collimator array plane). A
`quarter wave plate is placed in front of the focusing lens to provide the desired
`polarization properties as discussed in Ref. 1 (namely minimal PDL and PMD).
`
`By controlling independently the angle of each micromirror, the system has the ability to
`direct each wavelength channel to any of the outputs (pass-through or drop). The
`presence of multiple drops ports allows for the possibility of putting only one wavelength
`on one drop port, thereby avoiding the additional demultiplexing (and the associated cost
`and complexity) that would otherwise be required with the prior art device of Figures 5
`and 6. Feedback control of the mirror positions makes the system stable. More detail
`regarding the control system is provided in the following sections. This system can
`readily scale to large channel count by simply adding more minors to the mirror array.
`
`The results of an optical ray trace model are shown in Figures 13-15. The coltimated
`beam diameter is approximately 1 mm. The angle of incidence on the grating is 85
`degrees, and the grating spatial frequency is 7001inesfmm. The grating is blazed to
`optimize the —1 order diffraction efficiency. An f=30 mm ideal focusing lens captures
`the diffracted tight and focuses it to the micromirror plane (denoted as the spatial light
`modulator (SLM) plane in Figures 13—15). In this model, the grating is not placed in the
`front focal plane of the focusing lens, so this configuration does not represent the

`
`preferred telecentric embodiment. However, this non-telecentric system is useful for
`illustrating some of the spatial scales of a typical embodiment. For example, wavelength
`channels separated by 100 GHz (0.8 nm) are focused in the SLM plane with a 17-micron
`pitch. The shape and size of a focused wavelength channel, along with the relative
`spacing between two adjacent channels, is shown in Figure 15. It is seen that adjacent
`channels are separate and resolvable. The side view of Figure 14 shows that mirror
`deflection of approximately 1.15 degrees is needed to direct a beam between adjacent
`Output collimator ports, with the ports lying on a 1.2 mm pitch.
`
`Additional Actuation for more Robust Servo Control
`
`The action of the mirrors in the micromirror array serves to translate the various
`wavelength beams to their respective output collimator ports. However, to provide more
`control over the coupling efficiency back into a collimator, additional degrees of freedom
`are needed. In particular, it is advantageous to have control over the two incoming angles
`(9x and fly) into the collimator. One method for achieving such control is illustrated in
`Figure 16. Here a collimated beam reflects off of a dynamic mirror capable of rotation
`about two orthogonal axes. A 4-f telecentric optical system images the mirror onto the
`front focal plane of a coupling lens, in this case the entrance surface of a quarter-pitch
`GRIN lens.
`
`The sensitivity to change in the mirror angle depends on the focal length of the coupling
`lens. For the GRIN lens used in Figure 16, the coupling efficiency versus mirror
`deflection plot shows that a change of a few tenths of one degree is sufficient to go from
`optimum coupling to near zero. The 2-axis dynamic mirror can take the form of a
`double-gimbaled torsional mirror. A single-axis torsional mirror is described in Ref. 2,
`while a two-axis version of such a torsional mirror is described in Ref. 3, and a version
`developed by Lucent Technologies is shown in Figure 17.
`
`Accordingly, additional embodiments of the present invention are shown in Figures 18
`and 19. In Fig. 18 a lxN dynamic mirror array is added, along with two lxN lens arrays
`to comprise a telecentric system capable of controlling the angle of the return beams into
`all of the output collimators. Moreover, the top dynamic mirror in the lxN array allows
`the angle of incidence of the input beam onto the grating to be controlled. In this way the
`spot array can be actively aligned to the micromirror array in the back focal plane of the
`focusing lens. Extending the inputfoutput plane to two dimensions as shown in Figure 19
`can increase the number of output collimator ports. In this case each mirror in the
`micromirror array must be capable of providing two axes of deflection. Additionally, a
`2-D dynamic mirror array, along with two 2-D lens arrays for telecentric imaging,
`provides control of the angular input into the collimators.
`
`Dynamic Spectral Equalization
`
`The use of micromirrors with analog deflection allows the coupling efficiency to be
`controlled on a channel-by—channel basis. This important property of the present
`invention allows for dynamic spectral equalization. Such equalization is important to

`
`compensate for non—unifonn gain associated with optical amplifiers in the optical
`networking system (e.g., erbium-doped fiber amplifiers). The principle of the present
`invention that allows for spectral equalization is detailed in Figures 20 and 21. The
`model results in these figures derive from an extension of the ray trace model of the
`system shown in Figs. 13—14. In Figure 20 it is seen that a 0.3-degree change in
`micromirror angle produces significant translational walk-off of a representative
`collimated beam (representing one wavelength channel in the system). However, the 0.3-
`degree deflection is only a fraction of the 1.15 degrees it takes to move the beam to an
`adjacent output port. The change in coupling efficiency with micromirror angle is shown
`in Figure 21. Under servo control, each wavelength in the system can be coupled with
`any efficiency value by making a suitable adjustment in the associated micromirror
`deflection angle in accordance with Figure 21. In this way the device of the present
`invention provides variable optical attenuation at the granularity of a single wavelength.
`
`Servo Control System
`
`To facilitate feedback control of the dynamic mirrors (in the micromirror array and in the
`2-axis mirror array for improved collimator coupling), a suitable feedback signal is
`required. Figure 22 illustrates the manner in which the present invention provides the
`requisite signals. Because the pass-thr0ugh port contains multiple wavelengths, a portion
`of the outgoing light from this collimator is tapped off and sent to a spectral monitor.
`The spectral monitor can comprise a grating and linear photodiode array for example.
`Such spectral monitors are commercially available. The output from the spectral monitor
`provides a measure ofthe intensity of each wavelength channel in this port. If the drop
`ports only contain a single wavelength, then simple power monitoring of each drop port
`is sufficient. These signals are provided to a servo system that controls the driving
`voltages to each of the mirrors in the system. The mirrors are actuated in such a way as
`to achieve whatever coupling conditions are desired on a channel-by—channel basis. For
`example, spectral equalization would require equal intensity set points of all pass-through
`channels.
`
`It is understood that the specific device design described here is only representative of the
`general device architecture, and that other similar designs may be implemented to
`achieve substantially the same results.
