Abstract: Methods of fabricating an optical fiber preform and a
method of fabricating an optical fiber of the invention realize
the fabrication of an optical fiber having desirable
transmission characteristics in the entire wavelength rage of
about 1.3 to 1.6 µm. The fabrication method comprisses a porous
core rod producing step of depositing a first cladding (3)
having an outer diameter D so as to surround a core (2) having
an outer diameter d to produce a porous core rod (1) of D/d
≥ 4.0 by VAD. Then, the porous core rod (1) is dehydrated to
reduce the OH group concentration to 0.8 ppb or less by weight
ratio. The porous core rod (1) is formed to be transparent
for a vitrified core rod (4) and is heated and stretched.
Thereafter, a second cladding is obtained by depositing a
second porous cladding (5) around the vitrified core rod (4)
by VAD to be dehydrated, transparent and vitrified. The
optical fiber preform thus fabricated is drawn to form into
an optical fiber and is then allowed to stand in a deuterium
gas atmosphere for a predetermined period.

Abstract: A method and device for controlling the delivery of cardiac contractility modulating signals to the heart are disclosed. The method includes applying electrodes to a heart, sensing electrical activity in a first cardiac chamber and in at least a second cardiac chamber to detect events within a cardiac beat cycle and applying a cardiac contractility modulating signal to the heart at or about the first cardiac chamber in response to detecting an event within an alert window time interval. The applying of the cardiac contractility modulating signal is inhibited in response to detecting one or more inhibitory events occurring within specific time intervals defined within a current beat cycle. The method also includes the ignoring of events associated with expected electrical artifact signals if they occur within the duration of specified time intervals, to increase the therapy efficacy. The artifact signals may be associated with pacing of a cardiac chamber or with detected far field sensed electrical artifacts due to intrinsic chamber activation. The timing of the various time intervals and of the cardiac contractility signal may be computed on a beat by beat basis by utilizing a plurality of parameter sets stored in the device and the timing of events detected in each beat cycle. A method for determining and setting the parameter sets in a test session is disclosed.

Abstract: A method of calibrating a transmit branch of a transmitter is provided. A low frequency component in a high frequency output signal of the transmit branch is measured. The low frequency component is present when the transmit branch is uncalibrated. From the measured low frequency component, a first compensation signal is derived. The first compensation signal is injected into an in-phase branch of the transmit branch. A second compensation signal is derived and injected into a quadrature branch of the transmit branch. The first and second compensation signals are swept and adapted on the basis of the measured low frequency component. From the sweeping, minimum values of the measured low frequency component are obtained. Thereafter, the first and second compensation signals are successively set at the minimum values. In addition to calibrating the transmit branch, in case of a transceiver, a receive branch may be calibrated. To calibrate the receive branch, the calibrated transmitter is coupled to the receive branch. Thereafter, the receive branch is calibrated through sweeping and setting of receiver branch parameters.

Title: Low dispersion interleaver
Inventor: COPNER NIGEL
IPC: G02B6/34
Filed: 2002-02-22
Abstract: The present invention relates to an interferometer useful in the interleaving and deinterleaving
of optical wavelength channels. Typically the invention comprises a
beamsplitter and two resonators, e.g. GT etalons or ring resonators. The beamsplitter
splits an input beam of light into a first sub-beam directed to follow a first path and a
second sub-beam directed to follow a second path. The first resonator has a first effective
cavity length and receives the first sub-beam. The second resonator has a second
effective cavity length and receives the second sub-beam. The first path and the second
path have an effective optical path difference approximately equal to one-half the first
effective cavity length. In one embodiment, the front plates of the GT etalons each have
a different reflectivity, and are selected to provide a desired spectral response. In another
embodiment, the two resonators are slightly de-phased from one another such that the
positive dispersion slope of the first resonator is aligned with the negative dispersion
slope of the second resonator. Polarization-based versions of the invention are disclosed,
in which a single resonator receives both sub-beams, which are orthogonally polarized.
Single etalon versions of the invention are also possible, in which a beam is separated
into sub-beams (i.e. reflected and transmitted beams) within a non-linear interferometer,
and then re-combined outside the interferometer with the appropriate effective optical
path length delay therebetween.
