| 摘要 |
An optical switching system is implemented by providing a transmitting section with a preparatory transmitted optical signal selector and a working transmitted optical signal splitter, which are each implemented by a 1x2 optical space switch, and by providing a receiving section with a receiving optical switch which is implemented by a 2x2 optical space switch, and with a preparatory receiving optical gate which is implemented by a 1x2 optical space switch. This makes it possible to switch between the working system and preparatory system without employing any 4x4 optical space switch, thereby implementing a practical optical switching system without causing such problems as communication interruption during maintenance or impairment of transmission path working efficiency.
