Abstract:
A plurality error correction circuits connected with series includes a calculator circuit corrects the codeword when the determination results of a determining circuit indicate that the error correcting circuit at the present stage is to correct the codeword, and a determining circuit at a subsequent error correction apparatus determines whether the error correcting circuit at the subsequent stage is to correct the codeword when the determination results of the determining circuit indicate that the error correcting circuit at the present stage is not to correct the codeword.
Abstract:
An optical transmission system transmits an optical signal of multi-level modulation. In a transmitter module, a data string in a specified frame is rearranged into a plurality of logical lanes. A lane ID, which specifies in what logical lane out of the plurality of logical lanes a start of the data string is arranged, is assigned to a non-scrambled area in an overhead portion of the frame. The lane ID corresponding to one of the plurality of logical lanes is different from the lane IDs corresponding to the other remaining logical lanes. The optical signal is generated using the data string rearranged into the plurality of logical lanes. In a receiver, the lane ID is detected according to a majority method. The inversion of bits and the swapping of lanes are detected using the lane ID and compensated.
Abstract:
An optical transmission apparatus including a variable optical attenuator is provided. The optical transmission apparatus includes a module detection portion for detecting a type of module that receives light attenuated by the variable optical attenuator; and a variable optical attenuator control portion for controlling so as to change control parameters of the variable optical attenuator in accordance with the type of module detected by the module detection portion.
Abstract:
A clock recovery apparatus allows that a clock of data is transparent before and after a relay. A clock recovery apparatus for performing clock recovery from a received signal, the clock recovery apparatus receiving a signal transmitted from a transmission apparatus converting a signal having a first signal-format with a first clock frequency into a signal having a second signal-format and transmitting the signal to the clock recovery apparatus in accordance with a second clock frequency, the clock recovery apparatus includes a signal processing section for converting the received signal into a signal having the first signal-format, and a clock recovery section for recovering the first clock frequency on a basis of a cycle produced by counting data of the signal obtained by the signal having the first signal-format processing section in a certain number.
