Abstract: An optical communication system according to the present invention cancels waveform distortion due to wavelength dispersion by extracting the spectrum of a transmitted optical signal and passing the optical signal to a fiber having a dispersion value opposite to a dispersion amount corresponding to a transmission distance received by the spectrum component and compensates for a transmission path loss due to the fiber having the opposite dispersion value using optical splitters having different split ratios. With this configuration, the present invention can compensate for waveform distortion due to wavelength dispersion by a simple method in an access network and achieve an increase in the reachable transmission distance of the farthest user or an increase in the number of connectable users.

Abstract: In order to prevent a signal which a terminal station does not require from being intercepted by the terminal station without greatly changing the power of optical signals to be transmitted from a node to the terminal station, a node device is provided with: a first optical unit which outputs a first optical signal received from a first terminal station and addressed to a second terminal station, and a second optical signal received from the first terminal station, addressed to a third terminal station, and having a different wavelength band from the first optical signal; and a second optical unit to which the first and second optical signals outputted from the first optical unit are inputted, and which shifts the frequency of the first optical signal by a predetermined amount to create a fourth optical signal, passes the second optical signal without any change, couples the second and fourth optical signals, and transmits a resultant signal to the third terminal station.

Abstract: A subsea optical communication network includes branch systems whereby transponders may be connected to trunk fibers carrying data to and from the transponders, e.g., to and from shore. Trunk nodes split transponder receive signals off the trunk and couple transponder transmit signals onto the trunk. Each trunk node also removes a wavelength/channel from the trunk signal to compensate for the wavelength being added with transponder data. Removed wavelengths may be selected from idler wavelengths, e.g., empty channels or noise, or previously dropped transponder wavelengths. Branch signals may be single wavelength in either direction, allowing the use of low-bandwidth repeaters, and the same wavelength may be used in both directions. Branch signals may alternatively contain plural wavelengths that load a standard wide-bandwidth commercial repeater, where an optical add drop multiplexer is used to select the wavelength of interest to the transponder after the repeater.
