    摘要: The present invention relates to an optical communication network and to a network element for use in such a network. The network element comprises a plurality of receivers (70-76) for receiving optical communication signals, a plurality of transmitters (54-62, 82-86) for transmitting optical communication signals, and a plurality of network connections, each network connection having an individual signal impairment characteristic. The pluralities of receivers (70-76) and transmitters (54-62, 82-86) are adapted to employ a plurality of different modulation schemes (64, 66). Furthermore, the pluralities of receivers (70-76) and transmitters (54-62, 82-86) are assigned to the network connections as a function of the individual signal impairment characteristics.

    摘要: The routes for transmitting optical signals between the nodes (N1-N6) of a transparent network are selected according to the estimated error rate (ERe) values presented by the signals received after being transmitted along these routes. To limit the number of measurements to be made before the network is commissioned, a function (G) relating to the parameters characteristic of the network's optical links is used. This function is an interpolation function providing, for each set (QoT) of parameters associated with a given route, a corresponding estimated error rate (ERe) value. To evaluate the accuracy of the interpolation, during the network's operation, error rate measurements are performed, relating to signals effectively transmitted along given routes, and these measurements serve either to readjust the margin of uncertainty to be applied to exploit the estimated error rates (ERe), or to modify the function (G) to improve its interpolation accuracy.

    摘要: Light pulses carrying data in binary form to be transmitted are injected into a transoceanic line fiber in which they pass through amplifiers imparting Gordon-Haus jitter to them. In accordance with the invention, a compensation fiber is disposed at the output of the line fiber so as to apply negative chromatic dispersion to the pulses so as to compensate their jitter in part before they are processed in a receiver. The invention applies to telecommunications.

    摘要: In an optical frequency marking method and a frequency channel communication network using this method, an optical reference frequency is scanned across a scanning band to produce frequency coincidences with a monitored frequency which constitutes the frequency to be marked. During each scanning half-cycle it effects a go path and a return path according to a known law to produce a go frequency coincidence and a return frequency coincidence. A marker interval is measured which is the time elapsed between said two coincidences. This interval marks the monitored frequency and enables said frequency to be locked by comparison with a set point interval. The invention finds a particular application in the marking and stabilization of carrier frequencies of a closely-spaced different frequency channel network.

    摘要: Calls are made in known manner between terminals in the form of information-carrying modulation applied to emission waves that travel along common transmission lines. An emission frequency (F(2P-1)) is allocated to each terminal for each call. According to the invention, a marking wave is supplied to all of the terminals while no call is yet being set up, thereby marking an emission frequency. When a new call is being set up, the marked frequency is allocated for the new call to at least one of the terminals that are to participate in the call. The invention is particularly applicable to communications by means of optical fibers.
