摘要:
Soliton or soliton-like optical pulses with characteristics adapted to propagation in an optical line for RZ type transmission are generated by modulating a continuous optical signal (1) by means of a modulator (2) which is substantially devoid of chirping, in which the modulator drive signal comprises at least one frequency (4) and one harmonic (5) thereof superimposed on each other (7).A high-speed optical transmission system is rendered independent of the type of transmitter or of signals sent to it if it comprises an adaptation unit (32) receiving the original optical pulses (30) and capable of generating corresponding pulsed signals (63) of RZ type.

A method of filtering an optical signal includes operating an optical filter having resonators, each having a respective free spectral range and a respective resonance falling within a first frequency band, first tuning at least one resonator with respect to at least another resonator to obtain a separation between any resonance of at least one resonator falling within an optical bandwidth with respect to a resonance of at least another resonator nearest to the any resonance, second tuning all the resonators of the optical filter so as to move all respective resonances by a respective frequency interval greater than a frequency spacing, and third tuning the at least one resonator and the at least another resonator such that a further respective resonance of each one of the resonators falls within a second frequency band, different from the first frequency band.
摘要:
An optical transmission system having an optical source, an optical dispersion compensation filter optically connected to the optical source, and a control system. The optical source generates a modulated optical signal having an optical spectrum and a value of dispersion robustness. The optical dispersion compensation filter has at least two cascaded optical resonators and a periodic transfer function rigidly translatable in the frequency spectrum to obtain translation in frequency of the transfer function without a substantial change in shape, and characterized by a free spectral range. The control system acts on the optical dispersion compensation filter in order to rigidly translate the transfer function along the frequency spectrum in first and second positions in the frequency spectrum. The translation of the transfer function between the first and the second positions is smaller than the free spectral range.
摘要:
At a receiver a 20 Gbit/s soliton bit stream (20) is demultiplexed into two 10 Gbit/s bit streams (22a, 22b) using a 2-way splitter (6), a clock extraction circuit (4), and a pair of polarization insensitive amplitude modulators (8a, 8b) exhibiting positive chirp. The outputs of the modulators are fed to detectors (7a, 7b) via lengths (9a, 9b) of optical fiber exhibiting normal dispersion thereby producing bit streams (23a, 23b) with increased mark/space ratio and reduced timing jitter.

A corresponding device for filtering an optical signal is disclosed.

With said optical amplifier there are associated means for the detection of the presence of light energy at input and means for causing the shut down of the amplifier, which in the absence of light energy at input are caused by said detection means to interrupt substantially any emission of light energy on the part of said optical amplifier.
