Abstract
To improve resistance to environmental changes and enhance system extensibility, the present invention provides an optical bus for transmitting an optical signal, which has diffusers distributed in a optical transmission layer to diffuse an input signal beam and propagate the diffused signal beam, and a signal processor for carrying out signal processing including transmission and reception of a signal beam using the optical bus.
