20140105311 | NON-INTERRUPTIVE FILTERING OF TRANSMISSION LINE COMMUNICATIONS - Systems and methods according to aspects of the subject technology provide non-interruptive filtering of transmission line communications. The non-interruptive filtering may physically isolate, in the frequency domain, independent networks that share a common transmission media, such as mains wires that are used to deliver both alternating current (AC) power and power line communication signals. The isolation provided by the non-interruptive filtering prevents the transmissions from the independent networks from interfering with each other. In one or more implementations, the non-interruptive filtering may be provided by one or more filters that include cores, such as ferrite cores, around which two mains wires, e.g. a mains live wire and a mains neutral wire, can be wound in opposite directions, respectively. Currents traveling on the mains wires through the filter in opposite phases cancel each other out, thereby blocking symmetric power line transmissions, while allowing AC power to pass through. | 04-17-2014 |

20160134391 | METHOD OF OPTICAL DATA TRANSMISSION USING POLARIZATION DIVISION MULTIPLEXING AND QPSK - Proposed is a method of optical data transmission. The method comprises different steps. At least one stream of data bits is received. Sets of data bits are mapped onto successive logical states. The logical states correspond to respective sets of two initial QPSK symbols chosen according to a QPSK mapping and according to a set partitioning rule. The logical states are differentially encoded according to a differential encoding rule. For the differentially encoded logical states respective sets of two resulting QPSK symbols are derived according to the QPSK mapping and according to the set partitioning rule. The encoded sets of two QPSK symbols are transmitted using polarization division multiplexing. The differential encoding rule results in a differential encoding of one of the initial QPSK symbols but not the other of the initial QPSK symbols. | 05-12-2016 |

20140186057 | METHOD OF DEMODULATING A PHASE MODULATED OPTICAL SIGNAL - Proposed is a method of demodulating a phase modulated optical signal received from an optical channel. A time-discrete electrical signal is derived from the phase modulated optical signal, using a local optical signal, which has a frequency that is essentially equal to a carrier frequency of the phase modulated optical signal. A phase error between the local optical signal and the phase modulated optical signal is compensated, by deriving from the local optical signal a phase offset and modifying the derived time-discrete electrical signal by this phase offset. A chromatic dispersion caused by the optical channel is compensated, by filtering the modified time-discrete electrical signal using a digital filter. | 07-03-2014 |
