    摘要: A demultiplexer device is used in a wavelength-division multiplexed optical fiber communication line to achieve efficient dispersion compensation and loss compensation as well as a reduction of active devices such as optical amplifiers. The demultiplexer device has a series of couplers disposed in multi-stages from the input of the demultiplexer. Each coupler has two branches with one branch of each coupler connected to a separate optical filter and the other branches are series connected to a subsequent stage of the couplers through equalizing fibers, except for the final stage which has its second branch connected to an optical filter for the shortest wavelength transmitted. The equalizing fibers are thus serially connected between couplers and act to perform a cumulative dispersion compensation. The quantity of the equalizing fibers can thus be reduced as a whole, and as a result the attenuation amount also decreases, so that the number of optical amplifiers can be reduced.

    摘要: An optical transmission system is disclosed, in which the transmission of the optical soliton pulses is controlled by controlling the wavelength dispersion of the optical fiber transmission line for each long section including a plurality of optical amplifier repeaters. In this case,the first sections having an average value of the wavelength dispersion larger than the dispersion value meeting with the soliton condition and the second sections having an average value of the wavelength dispersion smaller than the dispersion value meeting with the soliton condition are alternatively allocated in the optical fiber transmission line, so that the average value of the wavelength dispersion of the entire length of the optical fiber transmission line assumes a positive value.

    摘要: A chromatic dispersion measuring method and apparatus are disclosed which permit highly accurate measurements of the wavelength dispersion characteristic of an optical transmission such as an optical fiber or an optical amplifier repeater system. Measurements are made on the propagation time of a first optical signal of a fixed wavelength through an optical transmission line to be measured and the propagation time through the same optical transmission line of a second optical signal whose wavelength can be arbitrarily set over the measuring wavelength band. By obtaining a difference between the both propagation times, it is possible to obtain only a change in the propagation time of each signal which is caused by a change in the wavelength of the second optical signal. That is, the elongation or shrinkage of the optical fiber has an equal influence on both of the first optical signal and the second optical signal, and hence does not induce an error in the detection of the above-said time difference.

    摘要: The operation of a laser in an optical repeater in an optical transmission system using an optical fiber cable is telemonitored at a terminal station by changing the mark ratio of the test signal which is transmitted from the terminal station to the circuit. Each of the repeaters has an optical-electrical conversion element for the conversion of the input optical energy to electrical energy, an amplifier for amplifying the electrical output of said conversion element, a laser for converting the electrical output of the amplifier to an optical output power, a device for controlling the optical output power of the laser, a switch for providing the signal return path between the upward circuit and the downward circuit, and a monitoring circuit having a reference voltage generator for providing a reference lever which is lower than the normal signal level when the signal has the mark ratio of 1/2, and a comparator for comparing the laser output with the reference level, and a device for turning OFF the switch when the monitoring circuit provides the output signal indicating that the laser output is equal to the reference level. The terminal station designates the particular repeater and closes the switch of the designated repeater, then, transmits the test signal having the controlled mark ratio. That test signal returns to the terminal station reflected by that closed switch. By adjusting the mark ratio of the test signal, the monitoring circuit of the repeater provides the output when the laser output equals to the reference level, and has the switch turned OFF. Thus, the terminal station recognizes the degree of the degration of the laser from the mark ratio when the circuit is broken.

    摘要: In a long-distance high-speed optical communication scheme in which multiple optical amplifiers are provided at a large number of stages in optical fibers, an optical signal from a light source which has a desired small line width and oscillates at a single wavelength is modulated at a high speed by an external modulator and then transmitted in the fibers which are dispersion shifted optical fibers, the zero-dispersion wavelength in which is set to be larger than the oscillation wavelength of the light source. Therefore, noises and the modulation instability, which would occur due to the phase fluctuation in the oscillation wavelength of the light source, and the influence of a waveform distortion due to the dispersion in the optical fibers can be avoided to make it possible for the first time in history to transmit the optical signals at the high-speed in the long-distance optical communication system employing the optical amplifiers.
