摘要:
A colorless optical DQPSK demodulator and system operating over multiple, equally-spaced DWDM channels with fixed optical delays—capable of demodulating DQPSK within signals within DWDM communications wave bands on ITU grids using delay interferometers having fixed free spectral range at 20 GHz or 25 GHz.

A monitoring system according to an exemplary aspect of the invention is a monitoring system for use in an optical transmission system that monitors an input level of an optical amplifier and issues an alarm if the input level gets out of a predetermined range, wherein a threshold value for issuing the alarm to decide the predetermined range is set from the outside.
摘要:
An optical transmission system includes a first node and a second node, the first node includes a first optical amplifier which outputs a signal to the second node through a first transmission line and a first monitoring unit, the second node includes a monitor which monitors a signal from the first transmission line, a second optical amplifier which outputs a signal to the first node through a second transmission line and a second monitoring unit, upon detecting disconnection from the first transmission line, the second monitoring unit transmits a notification for making power of the first optical amplifier reduced, upon receipt of the notification, the first monitoring unit reduces power of the first optical amplifier, and transmits a completion notification to the second monitoring unit, and upon not receiving the completion notification even after expiration of an allowed time, the second monitoring unit reduces power of the second optical amplifier.
摘要:
A transponder device that can form D&C paths with great versatility and high reliability without complicating a device configuration is provided, as well as an optical branching device and an optical signal transmission method. The transponder device that is independent of any directions of a wavelength switching function section at a node in a WDM transport network includes a D&C branching means that branches an optical signal input from the wavelength switching function section into one stream of dropped light and at least one stream of continued light.
