摘要: An optical communication system according to the present invention cancels waveform distortion due to wavelength dispersion by extracting the spectrum of a transmitted optical signal and passing the optical signal to a fiber having a dispersion value opposite to a dispersion amount corresponding to a transmission distance received by the spectrum component and compensates for a transmission path loss due to the fiber having the opposite dispersion value using optical splitters having different split ratios. With this configuration, the present invention can compensate for waveform distortion due to wavelength dispersion by a simple method in an access network and achieve an increase in the reachable transmission distance of the farthest user or an increase in the number of connectable users.

摘要: To provide an optical communication system and an optical communication method able to achieve a high reliable access network capable of long haul distance transmission considering the optical energy efficiency even if the user distribution is biased. An uneven branch optical splitter included in an optical communication system according to the present invention can output the optical intensities different for each output port by adjusting the branching configuration and the branching ratio. For example, a reach transmission distance of the farmost user can be extended or the number of connectible users can be increased by adjusting the branching configuration of the uneven branch optical splitter or the branching ratios such that the near minimum reception sensitivity is given for the ONU installed near the telecommunications carrier.
