Abstract
This specification discloses a light signal interleaver, which can separate a light signal into two light signals with a large interval in between. A birefringent plate is used as a light signal interleaver to separate all wavelengths in a light signal into an O-ray and an E-ray. Therefore, the invention can increase the total transmission capacity under the existent network structure.
