Patent CA-2420447-A1 (CA)
Title: Optical signal transmitter and optical signal transmitting method
Inventor: ISHIZUKA HIROKAZU
IPC: G02F1/01
Filed: 2001-09-05
Abstract: The optical system of a transmitter for quantum cipher comprises a Faraday mirror and a phase modulator. The phase modulator has a double refraction power, and therefore a very large insertion loss attributed to the optical path structure is inevitable. As a result, the S/N ratio is low and the adjustment at start is difficult. Two different optical pulses, an optical pulse of TE polarization and an optical pulse of TM polarization enter the transmitter and pass through a phase modulator (8). The optical pulse of TE  polarization is changed to an optical pulse of TM polarization and the optical pulse of TM polarization is changed to an optical pulse of TE polarization because of rotation of polarization plane by a Faraday mirror (7) and reflected by the mirror (7) and outputted from the transmitter. Two polarization beam splitters (5, 6) are used, and the optical pulse of TM  polarization is made to bypass the phase modulator (8). Only the optical pulse of TE polarization is made to pass through the phase modulator (8).

Patent CA-2421545-A1 (CA)
Inventor: ICHINO KIYOHISA
IPC: H04L69/40
Filed: 2003-03-11
Abstract: A multiplex transmission system is disclosed in which, in the event of a problem between a converter and a client device on the transmitting side, the occurrence of this problem is reported to a converter on the receiving side without using specially dedicated frames. When a problem occurs between the converter on the transmitting side and an FC device on the transmitting side and the loss of optical input (LOS) or the loss of character synchronization (LCS) is detected, the converter on the transmitting side uses values that are not being used of the control character indicators of compression control codes in 64B/65B codes following 64B/65B conversion to transmit to the converter on the receiving side the alert information LOS or LCS. The converter on the receiving side, upon detecting this alert information, transmits a 10B-ERR signal or halts optical output to the FC device on the receiving side.

Patent CA-2432275-A1 (CA)
Inventor: NARIN ATTILA
IPC: H04L29/06
Filed: 2003-06-13
Abstract: A key management interface that allows for different key protection schemes to be plugged into a digital rights management system is disclosed.  The interface exposes the functionality of signing data, decrypting data encrypted using a public key, and re-encrypting data encrypted using the public key exported by the interface to a different authenticated principal (i.e., a different public key). Thus, a secure interface can be provided such that the data does not enter or leave the interface in the clear. Such an interface exports private key operations of signing and decryption, and provides security and authentication for the digital asset server in licensing and publishing. During publishing, a client can encrypt asset keys such that only a specified entity can decrypt it, using a plug-in, for example, that implements the aforementioned interface. During licensing, the license issuing entity can use the interface to decrypt keys for assets and to sign licenses and rights labels such that the asset is protected and consumable by a host digital rights management platform. The interface thus provides an abstraction for key operations.
