1. An optical power system, comprising:
- at least one optical power source providing at least a first modulated optical power form and a second optical power form, the first optical power form being different than the second optical power form, the first optical power form including at least one characteristic that is modulated; and
a device configured to receive at least the first modulated optical power form and to provide output driven by the modulated first optical power form; and
an optical conduit coupled to the optical power source and the device and configured to transmit at least the first modulated optical power form and the second optical power form there between.

Abstract
A system for delivering optical power over an optical conduit includes at least one optical power source delivering multiple optical power forms, at least one of the optical power forms being a modulated optical power form. The system includes an optical power receiving device that is directly driven by the at least one modulated optical power form.
