Abstract

An embodiment of the invention provides an optical switch matrix and a control method thereof. Through transmitting a first single-mode optical signal and a second single-mode optical signal in an optical communication network through waveguides with the same length in a first mode in the optical switch matrix and processing by the same device, and performing one-time mode conversion, a problem ofrelatively high PDL and DGD of the optical signal in the optical network through processing by the optical switch matrix is settled. Furthermore, through arranging a first crossed waveguide, a secondcrossed waveguide, a third crossed waveguide and a fourth crossed waveguide, a number difference between the crossed waveguides on different waveguides is reduced, thereby further reducing the PDL.

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments of the present invention relate to the field of optical communications, and in particular to an optical switch matrix and a control method thereof. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of optical communication systems and the introduction of dense wavelength division multiplexing technology, the optical switch matrix has become a crucial component in the field of optical communication, which can realize important functions such as routing selection, wavelength selection, and optical cross-connection. [0003] In the prior art, optical signals in an optical communication network may include single-mode optical signals of different modes. Generally, the optical switch matrix is ​​mainly composed of waveguides and devices formed by the waveguides, where the devices may be, for example, optical switches, polarization rotator beam splitters (PSR, Polarization Splitter Rotator) and the like. Due to the different lengths of th...
