The teaching assistant (Bashir Muhammad Hussein) from the College of Education for Pure Sciences/Department of Physics obtained a patent from the Central Agency for Standardization and Quality Control. The patent included the system’s working principle, the system’s electronic equipment, the method of operation and measurement, the results obtained from the system, features, and applications.
The patent consists of an optical transmitting unit and an optical signal receiving unit. The transmitter unit included a Shimadzu RF551 spectrometer, a control board to process the transmitted optical signal, and an optical fiber to transmit the optical signal. The control board is an Arduino Mega 2560 card, which was programmed with special software commands based on the programming language. The patent is used to provide a system for transmitting information encoded by the wavelength of light transmitted in an optical fiber. The system can be used in free optical LANs to transmit information encoded by the wavelength of transmitted light. The patent aims to create an electro-optical system for communicating with optical fibers to send and receive information based on an innovative method that relies on including data at the wavelength of light, which differs from traditional methods.
