Abstract:
An optical transmitter is provided which optimizes DC bias voltage input to an optical modulator employing a duo-binary modulation scheme. The optical transmitter including a signal combiner which converts an electrical signal for optical transmission into a high-speed electrical signal, and an optical modulator which receives and modulates the high-speed electrical signal from the signal combiner further includes a frequency divider to divide frequency of a sinusoidal watchdog clock signal from the signal combiner and to output the divided signal to be added to direct current (DC) bias voltage input to the optical modulator; and a bias voltage modifier to adjust the DC bias voltage by analyzing the modulated electrical signal from the optical modulator. Accordingly, it is possible to conveniently optimize the DC bias voltage with a simple design.

An optical communication system and method using Manchester encoded signal remodulation are provided. The optical communication system includes a transmitter generating and transmitting a Manchester encoded optical signal including a first data stream, and a receiver receiving an optical signal obtained by dividing power of the Manchester encoded optical signal into two parts and modulating one of the two parts to include a second data stream, and recovering the second data stream. In two-way communication, the optical communication system and method allow one party to generate and transmit a Manchester encoded signal (i.e., a downstream signal) to the other party and allow the other party to generate an upstream signal by modulating the optical power of the downstream signal without using a light source.

Provided is a hybrid optical amplifier using a gain-clamped semiconductor optical amplifier enabling Raman amplification. The hybrid optical amplifier comprises a spool of optical fiber used as transmission line in the optical communication, a GCSOA amplifying optical signal input via the optical fiber and generating a self-oscillation laser beam for gain-clamping through the gain medium, and a backward pumping Raman optical amplifier inducing Raman amplification by emitting the self-oscillation laser beam generated by the GCSOA into the optical fiber. Therefore, the Raman amplification can be obtained with a relatively simple structure using the GCSOA.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for revising a wavelength of the EML by controlling a working temperature based on arithmetic functional relations between the DC-Offset voltage and the wavelength and between the working temperature and the wavelength, and a computer-readable recording medium thereof. The method includes the steps of: re-setting initial values of a working temperature, a amplifying voltage and the DC-Offset voltage; determining a wavelength with respect to the re-set DC-Offset voltage based on a functional relation between the DC-Offset voltage and the wavelength of the EML; and determining the revising working temperature for the determined wavelength based on the functional relation between the working temperature and the wavelength of the EML, and re-setting the working temperature with the revising working temperature.
Abstract:
A multi-dimensional optical cross-connect switching system. The system is capable of multi-dimensionally using wavelength resources, such as in the forms of optical fibers, optical wavelength bands and optical wavelengths. The system can three-dimensionally use the wavelength resources by being matched with an optical transport network through the optical fiber layer, optical wavelength band layer and optical wavelength layer. In addition, the multi-dimentional optical cross-connect switching system is constructed in such a way that two cross-connect switches are symmetrically arranged and an insertion/extraction switch is added to switch addition/dropping links between the two switches.
