摘要:
An optical amplification system includes: three or more nodes; a multi-core fiber having a plurality of cores, the multi-core fiber being used in at least a partial segment of the connection between the nodes; an amplification light input unit configured to input amplification light to a core of the plurality of cores of the multi-core fiber; an amplification unit configured to amplify communication light transmitted through at least one core of the plurality of cores of the multi-core fiber using the amplification light, the amplification unit being provided in the nodes or between the nodes; and an amplification light coupling unit configured to couple the amplification light input by the amplification light input unit to the amplification unit.
摘要:
The present invention provides a signal block sequence processing method enabling a standardized existing system to be utilized even with a difference in interface speed between LAN and WAN. According to the method, signal block headers (Bch, Bdh) are deleted from each sequence of signal blocks (B) each composed of the signal block header (Bch, Bdh) indicating whether a signal block payload is a control block payload (Bc') in which a control code is contained or a data block payload (Bd') in which data is contained. The resultant signal blocks are formed into one group (G). Each control block payload in the group is provided with position determination information indicating the position of the control block payload in the group. The signal block payloads are rearranged in accordance with a signal block payload rearrangement rule predetermined to a receiving side. The rearranged signal block payloads are contained in a super-block payload. A super-block header (Shc) indicative of containment of control block payloads is added to the super-block payload (Sc). The resultant super-block (S) is output.
