Design and construction of a WDM transceiver with VHGT using hybrid integration technology

We report about design and construction of WDM bidirectional transceiver module (TRx) for the passive optical network (PON) of a fiber to the home FTTH topology. The TRx uses a microoptics hybrid integration technology with volume holographic Bragg grating triplex filter (VHGT) and a collimation lenses for wavelength multiplexing/demultiplexing. Our optical WDM transceiver TRx has been constructed using system of a four micromodules in the new circle topology. The optical micromodul with VHGT filter, two optoelectronics receivers micromodules for receiving download information (internet and digital TV signals) and optoelectronic transceiver micromodul for transmitting of a upload information (© 2011 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
