摘要:
A mobile IPv6 dual-stack node engages in IPv6 communication while roaming within an IPv4-only network, for example using ISATAP. First, the node determines that it has moved Bnd obtains a new IPv4 address. After determining that the visited network contains no IPv6-enabled components, the node uses an IPv6 connect agent to engage in IPv6 communication. The node configures its care-of address using the IPv6 connect agent's routing information and the node's newly-obtained IPv4 address. In one embodiment, the node and the connect agent optimize the handoff when the nodes has moved but still uses the same connect agent. The node sends a binding updates to the connect agents comprising the node's old care-of address and the node's new care-of address. When the connect agent receives a packet destined for the node's previous care-of address, it forwards the packet to the node's currents care-of address, thereby reducing packet loss.

An IPv6 enabled node finds an IPv6 connect agent by using a Domain Name System (DNS) server. The IPv6 enabled node sends a query to the DNS server and, in response, receives one or more identifiers of one or more IPv6 connect agents. In one embodiment, an identifier comprises the name of an IPv6 connect agent. In this embodiment, the IPv6 enabled node then sends a name of a desired IPv6 connect agent to the DNS server and, in response, receives the address of that IPv6 connect agent. The IPv6 enabled node is then able to engage in IPv6 communication using that IPv6 connect agent. In another embodiment, an identifier comprises the address of an IPv6 connect agent. In this embodiment, the IPv6 enabled node is able to engage in IPv6 communication using that IPv6 connect agent without any further contact with the DNS server.

An optical transmission system comprises transmission optical fibers 14 connected between an optical transmission terminal 10 and an optical receiving terminal 12 via optical amplifying repeaters 16, and equalizing fiber 18 each connected in each equalizing interval. The equalizing fiber 18 is typically located at the terminal end of each equalizing interval. Each transmission optical fiber 14 is a dispersion-shifted fiber whose wavelength dispersion is substantially zero in a specific band, for example, 1.5 .mu.m. The optical amplifying repeaters 16 include an optical amplifier, and a dispersion compensating optical element having wavelength dispersion characteristics that exhibit an inclination opposite from that of wavelength characteristics of wavelength dispersion of the transmission optical fiber 14 (more specifically, a minus inclination with respect to the wavelength). The dispersion compensating optical element compensates offset values of cumulative wavelength dispersion among different wavelengths. The dispersion compensating optical element can be made by a fiber grating technology.
摘要:
An optical add/drop multiplexing scheme capable of reducing the degradation of the transmission characteristic due to the beat noises caused by the interference of the fiber grating leakage components. An optical add/drop multiplexing device is formed by a high speed polarization scrambler for entering signal lights with a data modulation at a high speed bit rate applied thereto, and scrambling polarization states of entered signal lights at high speed, and an optical add/drop element for receiving the signal lights with the polarization states scrambled by the high speed polarization scrambler, and carrying out an add/drop multiplexing operation for signal lights in a specific wavelength among received signal lights. The high speed polarization scrambler scrambles the polarization states of the entered signal lights so as to lower a probability for having worst polarization states of signal lights and interference lights, by scrambling the polarization states of the entered signal lights into every possible polarization states at nearly equal probabilities.
