Abstract:
Systems and methods are provided for a dual-side bi-directional optical multiplexing system includes a light receiving elements array receiving light from in an egress propagation direction from an optical fiber, arranged at a side of the optical fiber. The system also includes a light transmitting elements array emitting light in an ingress propagation direction into the optical fiber, and arranged at a second position to an opposing side of the optical fiber. The light receiving elements array and the light transmitting elements array are on dual-sides of the system with respect to the optical fiber. The system also includes bi-directional micro-optics interfacing with the optical fiber, and interfacing with the light transmitting elements array to direct light propagating in the ingress direction emitted from the light transmitting element array towards the optical fiber.

Claim (Index 12):
A dual-side bi-directional optical multiplexer, comprising:\n a plurality of first lenses to focus light received at a plurality of transmit wavelengths from a plurality of optical sources to travel in a zigzag propagation path towards at least one optical fiber of a plurality of optical fibers; a second lens to focus light propagating in an egress propagation direction from the at least one optical fiber of the plurality of optical fibers at a plurality of receive wavelengths towards a plurality of photodetectors; a waveband filter to selectively pass portions of the light having the plurality of transmit wavelengths and propagating in the egress propagation direction to follow a zigzag propagation path towards the plurality of photodetectors, and selectively reflecting portions of the received light having the plurality of receive wavelengths towards the plurality of optical fibers, and wherein the plurality of receive wavelengths are combined for propagation in the egress propagation direction through the optical fiber and wherein the plurality of transmit wavelengths are combined for propagation in the ingress direction through the optical fiber; a plurality of optical filters to selectively pass portions of the received light having the plurality of transmit wavelengths towards the zigzag propagation path and passing portions of light passing through the waveband filter towards the photodetectors having the plurality of receive wavelengths; and a plurality of relay mirrors to reflect the received light and directing the light to follow the zigzag propagation path between the plurality of optical filters and the plurality of relay mirrors.
