    摘要: A digital signal channel bypass is provided as bypass around an optical network optical amplifier, in particular, an analog type optical amplifier, such as an EDFA, in an optical transport network or system. The digital signal bypass provides for an ability to maintain the existing optical amplifier OO amplification site while inserting a bypass that provides ultra low-cost OEO REGEN in a digital optical network (DON) utilizing both semiconductor electronic integrated circuit chips and semiconductor photonic integrated circuit (PIC) chips where all the optical components are in semiconductor integrated chip form providing 1R, 2R, 3R or 4R regeneration as well as other signal caring functionality. A salient feature of the digital signal bypass is to regenerate signals in the optical span that are outside the gain bandwidth of the EDFA or other such amplifier.

    摘要: A system, apparatus and method are described for deployment of a control loop between optical or electro-optical modules and a multiplexing module to provide a desired power profile of banded optical channel groups. The power output characteristics of the optical or electro-optical modules, the properties of the transmission paths of the banded optical channel groups, and other factors may be analyzed to allow the control loop to achieve the desired power profile on the banded optical channel groups. The control loop may adjust the output power on the optical or electro-optical modules so that the banded optical channel groups are delivered to an optical component, such as an optical multiplexer or photo-detector, having a particular optical power profile.
