Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
An electromagnetic radiation emitter (12) which utilizes a precompensator (14), pulsed light signal, optical fiber cable (18) and a terahertz radiation , generator (16). The present invention incorporates an optical precompensator (14) to correct for the stretching of an optical signal as it travels through an optical fiber cable (18). The dispersion characteristics of the precompensator (14) will be equal and opposite to the dispersion characteristics of the optical fiber cable maintaining the fidelity of , optical pulses as they travel through and exit the optical fiber cable (18) striking a device that generates terahertz electromagnetic radiation (16).

Why it's free to use
- Filed March 26, 1999 and granted January 11, 2011. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended March 26, 2019.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by March 26, 2021.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
