摘要:
The present invention relates to an OFA having a high signal gain, easily manufactured, having a high mechanical strength, having a small splice loss with respect to other optical fibers, and rarely encountering the occurrence of noise at a signal wavelength. The OFA according to the present invention has a function of amplifying signals propagating therethroug by pumping light supplied thereto, and comprises, at least, a core region, an inner cladding region provided on the periphery of the core region, an outer cladding region provided on the periphery of the inner cladding region, and one or more node coupling gratings. An element for signal amplification is added to at least the core region. The core region has a structure ensuring a core mode with respect to the signals, while the inner cladding region has a structure ensuring a multi-mode with respect to the pumping light. Each of the mode coupling gratings passes core mode signals therethrough, and induces a mode coupling between the inner cladding mode and the core mode with respect to the pumping light.

摘要:
An unscheduled terminal unit is prevented from being connected to conference communication or a scheduled terminal unit is prevented from being not connected to the conference communication, and security of the conference communication is improved, and also, a conference server for interconnecting many terminal units is connected to a private branch exchange and reservation tables for using the conference server are provided in order to surely charge users for conference communication service. When an incoming call for requesting connection of the conference communication comes to the private branch exchange, the validation is identified by whether the incoming call has been registered in the reservation tables or not, and the connection is rejected for the invalid incoming call.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a fiber optic amplifier comprising a structure enabling favorable signal amplification characteristics to be maintained even in an environment exposed to radiation. The fiber optic amplifier according to the present invention comprises a bleaching system for restoring glass defects generated within an optical fiber for amplification upon exposure to ultraviolet rays. This bleaching system carries out at least one of optical bleaching and thermal bleaching for the optical fiber for amplification. The optical bleaching is effected when bleaching light having a shorter wavelength shorter and a higher power than pumping light is supplied into the optical fiber for amplification, whereas the fiber optic amplifier has a structure which can introduce and eliminate the bleaching light. On the other hand, the thermal bleaching is effected by heating the optical fiber for amplification, whereas the fiber optic amplifier comprises a structure for maintaining the surface temperature of the optical fiber for amplification within a predetermined range.
