Introduction

Osama Matsuda is an inventor associated with Chiba, Japan, and NEC Laboratories America, Inc. His patent work addresses resource management in wavelength cross-connect systems used in optical networks.

Latest Patents

The provided information lists 1 patent for Matsuda: “Centralized Resource Management in Wavelength Selective Switch Based Wavelength Cross Connect Systems.” The invention describes a centralized resource management system that allows transponders in a wavelength cross-connect node to be shared. A spare transponder can be reconfigured to serve a drop channel regardless of its wavelength or input port, supporting network restoration after failures and adjustments to changing traffic demands. The approach applies to conventional and wavelength-selective-switch-based nodes in wavelength-division-multiplexing networks. The patent also describes three transponder-management schemes and reconfiguration algorithms for an optical-switchless solution.

Career Highlights

Matsuda’s listed work focuses on improving the flexibility and resilience of optical network infrastructure. Centralized transponder sharing can help networks respond to failures and changing traffic requirements.

Collaborations

The provided information names Milorad Cvijectic and Philip N. Ji as Matsuda’s coworkers.

Conclusion

Osama Matsuda’s patent describes a centralized approach to managing optical-network transponders, with the goal of supporting both network restoration and reconfiguration as traffic needs change.
