The convolutional neural network is provided with a first intermediate layer for performing a first processing including a first inner product operation and a second intermediate layer for performing a second processing including a second inner product operation, and is configured so that the bit width of first filter data for the first inner product operation and the bit width of second filter data for the second inner product operation are different from each other.
Abstract:
In a PON system in which plural kinds of modulation schemes coexist, when uplink burst signals from respective ONUs are received, the receiving efficiency degrades as the number of the times of switching of the modulation scheme increases. In an optical access (PON) system supporting plural kinds of modulation schemes, an OLT allocates bandwidths for uplink signals, i.e., transmission timings each including a transmission start time and a transmission duration, to ONUs, respectively, such that the bandwidths allocated to plural ONUs for the same modulation scheme are as successive as possible. Based on the transmission timings allocated to the respective ONUs, the OLT switches the modulation scheme of a modulation-scheme variable burst-mode optical transmitter/receiver by control of a modulation scheme controller.
Abstract:
A receiver includes a data unit decomposer for receiving data units transmitted via a transmission channel and extracting user data including invalid data and valid data by removing management data from the received data units, and a plurality of rate estimators for receiving data forwarded by the data unit decomposer and outputting the data to different output interfaces. Each rate estimator selects valid data from the user data forwarded by the data unit decomposer, inputs the selected valid data to a FIFO unit, controls read frequency of the FIFO unit based on an amount of remaining data in the FIFO unit, and estimates a transmission data rate of an associated input interface in the transmitter based on at least one of a write cycle in writing the valid data to the FIFO unit and the amount of remaining data in the FIFO unit.

An aspect of this invention is a network system including subscriber apparatuses and a station-side apparatus for communicating with the subscriber apparatuses. The station-side apparatus communicates with the subscriber apparatuses using wavelengths. The station-side apparatus determines a wavelength to be used by each of at least one subscriber apparatus of the subscriber apparatuses based on effective transmission rates used by the subscriber apparatuses in communications with the station-side apparatus.

A transport system comprises 2 apparatuses. The first transport apparatus notifies, for each of first physical ports, to the second transport apparatus, a valid first lane count and identification information of the first physical port. The second transport apparatus is configured to: obtain, for each of second physical ports, a valid second lane count and identification information of the second physical port; associate, based on the valid second lane count and the identification information of the second physical port, and the valid first lane count and the identification information of the first physical port, the identification information of the first and second physical port; and transmit, when data including identification information of one of the first physical ports is transmitted, the data from the second physical port that is identified by the identification information associated with the identification information of the one of the first physical ports.
Abstract:
A transmitter of a data transmission system using n transmission lanes generates an error code such as an error detection code or an error correction code from transmitted data on x transmission lanes input to an error detection/correction code generating unit, and transmits the same to a lane number switching controlling unit. The lane number switching controlling unit distributes the transmitted data and the error code to at least some of the n transmission lanes as data strings based on lane information indicating a normal lane, a failure lane, or a lane with a sign of a failure received from a receiver. Further, markers including the lane information indicating a normal or failure lane and information to detect a failure of the n transmission lanes are generated and inserted into data strings transmitted on the n transmission lanes, so that communications are performed with the receiver.
Abstract:
In a processing method using a convolutional neural network, the neural network includes a convolution calculation unit that performs a convolution calculation by using a matrix vector product and a pooling calculation unit that performs a maximum value sampling calculation. A threshold value is set related to the matrix data for the convolution calculation, the matrix data is divided into a first and second halves based on the threshold value. The convolution calculation unit divides a first half convolution calculation by using the first half of the matrix data and a second half convolution calculation by using the second half of the matrix data into two and executes the calculations. The pooling calculation unit selects vector data to which the matrix vector product convolution calculation is to be performed in the second half convolution calculation, along with the maximum value sampling calculation.
Abstract:
A highly reliable optical switching device and optical switching method ensure restoration of the failure in the large-capacity high density wiring of the multicore fiber with the general number of cores (7 cores, 19 cores and the like). An optical transmission system which transmits a supervisory control signal concerning a transmission path switching to one or more cores of a single or multiple multicore fibers, an active signal to one or more cores, and a standby signal to one or more cores includes optical switching devices connected to respective ends of the optical transmission system. Upon detection of the transmission failure of the active signal based on the signal transmission condition and information from the supervisory control signal, it is switched to the standby signal. The supervisory control signal is transmitted to the center core of the multicore fiber.
