摘要： An optical transmission device improved in quality and reliability of OADM function and permitting configuration of highly-flexible, economical OADM networks. A wavelength tunable filter variably selects a wavelength according to a control frequency. A filter controller applies the control frequency to the filter while scanning wavelength over an entire signal bandwidth, to detect, from a reference wavelength monitor signal supplied thereto, a reference control frequency which permits the filter to select a reference wavelength and according to which wavelength is matched. On receiving a wavelength selection request, the controller obtains a target control frequency from the reference control frequency and the position of a target wavelength relative to the reference wavelength, and applies the obtained frequency to the filter. A reference wavelength filter transmits the reference wavelength therethrough. A light-receiving element monitors the transmitted reference wavelength to generate the monitor signal.

摘要： In an OADM system, an OADM device includes an AOTF. The AOTF can select an optional wavelength by changing the frequency of an RF signal to be applied. An optical signal having a specified wavelength can be dropped from a wavelength-multiplexed optical signal input from an input terminal, or a wavelength-multiplexed optical signal input from an add port can be multiplexed with a through optical signal. However, considering the increase in coherent cross talk, the AOTF should be exclusively used for dropping in an actual device configuration. Otherwise, a drop optical signal is branched by an optical coupler with the wavelength selected by a tributary station. Thus, the wavelength selected by the tributary station can be extracted by the AOTF from the through optical signal.
