摘要:
In communications systems having optical networks, data rates in the electrical domain can be matched to data rates in the optical domain by means of time-division multiplexing, with the pulses forming the transmitted optical data being compressed. A method performs the necessary pulse decompression on reception in all-optical manner. The method includes forming q auxiliary signals respectively obtained by amplitude modulating each of q optical carrier waves having different wavelengths by the received signal, and superposing q delayed auxiliary signals obtained by applying delays to the auxiliary signals such that any two consecutive delayed auxiliary signals are offset in time by the duration of the pulses making up the received signal.
摘要:
In order to re-synchronize and shape a binary signal of bit time T0, a method includes forming a number p of sampled signals obtained by causing the signal to modulate pulses that are of frequency 1/T0 and of duration substantially equal to T0/p, and that are carried by p optical carriers having different wavelengths. The method also includes combining delayed signals that are obtained by applying delays to the sampled signals, such that any two consecutive delayed signals are offset in time by T0/p. The method applies to optical communications systems.
