    摘要: A multiple-channel all-optical TDM-WDM converter and multiple-channel all-optical TDM demultiplexer which is able to simultaneously and spatially separate optical signal pulse trains of each channel from a TDM optical signal pulse train is structured without using a multistage-structure constitution. A control optical source 10 generates a control optical pulse train containing N optical frequencies, which is synchronous with optical signal pulse trains of N channels which are to be divided from a TDM optical signal pulse train wherein optical signal pulse trains of N channels have been multiplexed in time series. An optical wavelength multiplexer 11 combines the time-division-multiplexed optical signal pulse train and the control optical pulse train. The light output from an optical wavelength multiplexer 11 is input to a nonlinear material 12, which induces a four-wave mixing effect between the control optical pulse stream having the N optical frequencies and optical signal pulse trains of N channels, and outputs a frequency-converted optical pulse train which is the combination of N optical pulse trains having different optical frequencies. An optical wavelength demultiplexer 13 spatially divides the N types of optical pulse trains according to each optical frequency from the frequency-converted optical pulse train.

    摘要: A monitoring system includes first and second evaluation sections for obtaining an averaged Q-factor parameter and a waveform distortion parameter from an optical signal amplitude histogram collected from optical signals under measurement. The monitoring system further includes a third evaluation section for determining both averaged Q-factor parameter and waveform distortion parameter, and for making a decision as to whether the main factor of the optical signal quality degradation is waveform distortion or not by comparing the averaged Q-factor parameter and waveform distortion parameter with their initial values or initial characteristics which are obtained when no optical signal quality degradation is present.

    摘要: It is the object of the present invention to provide a transmission system that transmits a control signal corresponding to the overhead accommodating time division multiplexing information at a frequency that is the same (or nearly the same) as that of the main signal. In order to attain this object, an optical transmitter broadens in a time range the optical waveform of the OTDM signal having a wavelength &lgr;0 and the control light having a wavelength &lgr;1(≈&lgr;0), and multiplexes the signal light having an optical peak intensity set low compared to the OTDM signal peak intensity and sending this to an optical transmission fiber. An optical receiver provides a light splitting means that splits into two parts the transmitted OTDM signal and the control light and outputs one part thereof to an optical time division multiplexing means, and at the same time restores the control light included in the other part of the light to the original optical pulse train, and extracts the control information by converting this to an electric signal.

    摘要: A nonlinear optical crystal allowing type 2 phase matching multiplexes a fixed wavelength light having an angular frequency &ohgr;D and a variable wavelength light having an angular frequency &ohgr;S, with the polarization directions thereof being perpendicular to each other, so as to produce a sum frequency light having an angular frequency &ohgr;D+&ohgr;S. When multiplexing the fixed wavelength light and the variable wavelength light through the nonlinear optical crystal, a controlling section controls the polarization direction of the fixed wavelength light so as to be parallel to a predetermined reference axis within a plane vertical to a phase matching direction of the nonlinear optical crystal. Even when the wavelength of inputted light is changed, the predetermined reference axis is a single axis which maintains parallelism with the crystal axis of the nonlinear optical crystal.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a white pulse source that produces spectrally shaped white pulses of a constant optical output power over a wide wavelength range. The white pulse source includes a pump pulse source for generating pump pulses with a center wavelength .lambda.0 and a waveguided nonlinear optical medium with a length L. The waveguided nonlinear optical medium is characterized by two properties: the first property is that chromatic dispersion D(.lambda.0,z) at the center wavelength of pump pulses in ps/nm/km is positive at an input end of said waveguided nonlinear optical medium, where z=0, and decreases towards an output end. The second property is that said chromatic dispersion D(.lambda., z) has a maximum value D(.lambda.p(z), z) at a peak wavelength .lambda.p(z) within a range of propagation distance given by L1.ltoreq.z.ltoreq.L where 0.ltoreq.L1
