The apparatus comprises a light receiving unit converting input signal light to an electric signal, and a level detecting unit for detecting a high level component and a low level component of the electric signal from the light receiving unit, along with peak levels on a high-side and a low-side of the electric signal.

摘要:
An optical transmission device in which: a first cyclic filter with a fixed transmission wavelength characteristic and a second cyclic filter with a variable transmission wavelength characteristic are combined, and the transmission wavelength characteristic of the second cyclic filter is changed according to a target wavelength, to thereby control the relative phase relationship of the transmission wavelength characteristics of the first and second cyclic filters. Moreover a light source is controlled according to a monitored value of the transmittance of the second cyclic filter with respect to the control target light, to thereby match the wavelength of the control target light with the target wavelength. Consequently, it is possible, with a simple configuration using a combination of two cyclic filters, to variably control wavelength at arbitrary wavelength intervals at a high level of precision.

A light source control apparatus includes a laser having a wavelength that varies depending on temperature; a wavelength monitor that monitors the wavelength of light output from the laser; a temperature controller that controls the temperature of the laser based on an output of the wavelength monitor; a temperature monitor that monitors the temperature of the laser; and a control manager that stops control by the temperature controller if a variation amount per unit time of the temperature monitored by the temperature monitor exceeds a threshold value.
摘要:
In an optical transmitter, a laser emits light. A laser driving controller controls driving of the laser by superimposing modulation signals on laser driving signals to generate laser driving superimposed signals and by applying the laser driving superimposed signals to the laser to cause wavelength fluctuations in laser output light to suppress nonlinear optical phenomena during optical fiber transmission. An optical power variable controller variably controls a power of the laser output light. An optical fluctuation compensator suppresses optical fluctuations by monitoring output light from the variable controller to detect optical fluctuations accompanying wavelength fluctuations from monitoring results and by controlling a gain of the variable controller.
