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 14):
A dual-side bi-directional optical multiplexer, comprising:\n a diffractive optical element to selectively deflect light having a plurality of receive wavelengths and propagating in an egress propagation direction from at least one optical fiber of a plurality of optical fibers towards a zigzag propagation path, and deflecting light having a plurality of transmit wavelengths and propagating in an ingress propagation direction from a light transmitting side of the multiplexer towards the at least one optical fiber of 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 lens to collimate the light propagating in the egress propagation direction from the at least one optical fiber of the plurality of optical fibers towards the diffractive optical element; and a plurality of relay mirrors to reflect the light deflected from the diffractive optical element to follow the zigzag propagation path towards a light receiving side of the multiplexer.
