摘要： A method and circuit are presented for the all optical recovery of the clock signal from an arbitrary optical data signal. The method involves two stages. A first stage preprocesses the optical signal by converting a NRZ signal to a PRZ signal, or if the input optical signal is RZ, by merely amplifying it. In a preferred embodiment this stage is implemented via an integrated SOA in each arm of an asymmetric interferometric device. The output of the preprocessing stage is fed to a clock recovery stage, which consists of a symmetric interferometer that locks on to the inherent clock signal by using the second stage input signal to trigger two optical sources to self oscillate at the clock rate. In a preferred embodiment the second stage is implemented via SOAs integrated in the arms of an interferometer, with two DFB lasers as terminuses. The output of the interferometer is an optical clock signal at the clock rate of the original input.

摘要： The present invention provides an optical signal quality selection system for optimizing the quality of information transmission. The system splits an incoming optical signal into two equal signals. The split signals are evaluated in optical performance monitors, transmitting an electrical output message to a signal selector relating to the quality of the respective signal. A second electrical message is sent from the optical performance generator to an alarm indicator signal generator, which sends an optical signal to the signal selector to drop the one of the split signals and transmit the non-dropped split signal. An unequipped optical signal from an optical idle signal generator is triggered if no active optical signal is being transmitted.

摘要： A robust nonblocking switch architecture is presented, in the first and final stages made of switch modules which have extra, unallocated, input and output ports beyond those necessary to render the switch architecture nonblocking. Each middle stage has an extra switch module, affording it spare unallocated ports as well. A method of isolating a fault is also presented, given the robust switching architecture. Operating on each stage one at a time, the switching architecture is reconnected so as to bypass either the input, the output, or both the input and the output ports of the switch module in such stage impacted in the faulted signal path. Such method allows the isolation of the faulty switch module, and can be done automatically, with either external apparatus, or integrated fault isolation equipment.
