OPTISCHE HOCHGESCHWINDIGKEITSÜBERTRAGUNG FÜR COMPUTERTOMOGRAPH

摘要

An optical transmission line is provided that includes optical deflectors disposed within the transmission line. The deflectors are adapted to deflect an optical data signal such that a portion of the optical data signal is refracted outside the transmission line. A portion of the optical data signal is internally reflected within the transmission line. A reflective coating is disposed along the periphery of the transmission line. The reflective coating also includes an aperture extending axially along the transmission line. The aperture is adapted to allow a portion of the respective optical data signal to escape outside the transmission line.
