Abstract From the Canadian patent

This invention generally relates to an optical filter for a fiber optic communication system. An optical filter may be used following a directly , modulated laser source and converts a partially frequency modulated signal into a substantially amplitude modulated signal. The optical filter may compensate for the dispersion in the fiber optic transmission medium and may also lock the wavelength of the laser source.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed November 5, 2003 and granted January 17, 2012. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended November 5, 2023.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by November 5, 2025.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
