摘要： A multi-stage method and apparatus for determining a faulty component location along an optical path through an optical fiber in an optical network are disclosed. The optical fiber carries a plurality of wavelengths, which may or may not be modulated by low frequency dither tones that are utilized for identification purposes and performance monitoring in the optical network. First, the method comprises measuring a total power of the optical fiber and a total wavelength power as a sum of powers of the individual wavelengths at a plurality of local detection points; comparing the measured powers at the local detection points; and determining whether or not a faulty detection point exists along the optical path. If a fault is identified, the method further provides a multi-stage fault detection procedure, which comprises measuring a total wavelength power loss between a local detection point and an adjacent detection point, between the local detection point and multiple non-adjacent detection points. A correlation of the measured total wavelength power losses between the various detection points is used for determining the faulty component location along the optical path. The apparatus, which incorporates the above multi-stage method for determining the faulty component location in the optical network, is also provided.

摘要： This invention provides a method for commissioning an optical network using internal Automatic Spontaneous Emission (ASE) light inherently present in the optical network as a light source (the ASE light source) for measuring losses inside and between nodes in the network. A modular segmented approach is adopted and the network is commissioned segment by segment. The method uses techniques for the correction of the Optical Signal to Noise Ratio induced error as well as the Spectral Filtering Error during the loss computation required for adjusting the gains of the amplifiers at each network node to an appropriate value. Since the method does not require an external laser source that needs to be moved manually from node to node, it greatly reduces the commissioning time. Since it uses only the existing components of the network nodes it also leads to a significant saving in cost.

摘要： Ethernet packets are transmitted in full duplex mode over a single coaxial cable, such as RG6 and RG59. Symmetrical full duplex operation is achieved by separating the upstream and downstream signals in the frequency domain whereby a 100BaseT signal is transmitted unmodified in one direction while the other is modulated upon a high frequency carrier to be transmitted in the other direction. In a second embodiment, the separation is in the time domain whereby the signals are sampled in blocks, each block compressed in time and transmitted at a higher rate, thus allowing for the interleaving of upstream and downstream blocks on the same coaxial cable. In a third embodiment, different rate upstream and downstream signals are separated in the frequency domain, but without modulation. The resulting asymmetrical 1000/100 Mb/s Ethernet over coax link is valuable in network architectures where asymmetry in the up and down traffic loads is expected.

摘要： Signals in an optical communications network, such as optical channels in an optical WDM network for example, are each identified by at least two low frequency dither tones with which the signal is modulated. The dither tones alternate with a predetermined periodicity to produce a cyclically repeated sequence of dither tones. A network parameter, such as a channel identifier for example, is obtained by the detection of the particular combination of dither tones in the sequence. To detect a number of network parameters a signal is modulated with a number of cyclically repeated sequences of dither tones each uniquely identifying a respective network parameter. In some implementations each dither tone in a cyclically repeated sequence of dither tones is repeated with substantially the same phase and coherent averaging is performed over a number of periods to detect dither tones on low power signals.

摘要： Various methods and apparatuses are provided for performing a radix-M FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) upon N time domain samples to produce N/S frequency domain samples for detecting tones of dithers impressed on channels of a WDM (wavelength Division Multiplexed) optical signal. Successive tones have a tone frequency spacing, &Dgr;fta, and a sampling frequency, fs, is chosen so that fs=N&Dgr;fta/S. S is a spacing given by S=Mw with w being an integer. The radix-M FFT is performed in k=logm(N) stages and within the stages a reduced number of radix-M computations, when compared to the number of radix-M computations of a conventional radix-M FFT, are performed on data points associated with the N time domain samples. This is possible because successive frequency domain samples of the N/S frequency domain samples differ by &Dgr;fta=S&Dgr;f where &Dgr;f is a frequency bandwidth.

摘要： Identification of optical channels in wavelength division multiplex (WDM) optical networks may be confounded by unwanted noise tones interfering with pilot/dither tones used for identifying optical channels. The invention describes a method of selecting pilot/dither tones that are selectively restricted to avoid allocating dither/pilot tone frequencies that appear as noise tones along the path of an optical channel in the optical network.

摘要： An apparatus and method for minimizing channel gain excursion in an optical system with automatic gain control is provided. The apparatus includes a feedback control loop which dynamically regulates the target gain of an automatic gain controlled (AGC) amplifier so as to compensate for the action of the AGC amplifier to maintain a constant linear average gain without accounting for the distribution of channels that carry signals across the amplifier spectral gain profile, which causes gain excursion of individual channels. The feedback control loop measures gain of individual channels and uses these measurements to regulate the target gain of the amplifier so as to minimize gain excursion of individual channels. If required, the apparatus may be integrated into a package. In one embodiment, the method for regulating the target gain is to maintain constant gain for all channels irrespective of the number of channels that carry a signal. This method is simple and guarantees no gain excursion. In another embodiment, a weight is assigned to an individual channel to calculate a weighted average for the target gain of the amplifier while attempting to minimize gain excursion of individual channels.
