Abstract

A method of moving reflectors in an optical cross-connect switch. In one embodiment, the optical cross-connect switch identifies a reflector path avoiding possible interference with other reflectors, predicts the reflector path from precomputed tables, and moves the reflector in a straight line in target reflector plane coordinates from initial position to target position.
