20080240712 | METHOD AND SYSTEM OF MONITORING A DATA TRANSMISSION LINK, PARTICULARLY AN OPTICAL, BIDIRECTIONAL DATA TRANSMISSION LINK - Systems and methods for monitoring a data transmission link, especially an optical, bidirectional data transmission link, in which a digital transmit signal is transmitted on a first transmission path from a local end of the data transmission link toward a remote end of the data transmission link. A portion of the power of the transmit signal sent at the local end is transmitted, delayed by a non-zero delay time on a second transmission path as a control signal toward the remote end of the data transmission link. Both signals are received at the remote end and are tested for the presence of events of a predetermined type. A conclusion can be reached on the quality of the transmission link as a function of a time correlation and frequency of the appearance of events in the received transmit signal and in the received control signal. | 10-02-2008 |
20100290785 | OPTICAL WDM TRANSMITTING AND RECEIVING DEVICE AND OPTICAL TRANSCEIVER UNIT FOR THIS DEVICE - An optical transceiver unit for an optical WDM transmitting and receiving device is taught, with a transmitting unit to which a data signal can be fed to a specified channel input port of a multiplexer unit, wherein a separate channel wavelength is allocated to each channel input port, and the transmitting unit can be tuned with respect to optical carrier wavelength across a specified range of wavelengths. The transmitting unit is constructed so that, within the specified range of wavelengths, discrete wavelengths can be set that correspond to the channel wavelengths. In tuning mode, the controller unit can drive the transmitting unit so that the possible channel wavelengths are scanned through. The controller unit evaluates the reception signal fed to it from the receiving unit for whether abort criteria for tuning mode have been fulfilled or not, wherein the scanning process is continued until the abort criteria are fulfilled. | 11-18-2010 |
20100296808 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR THE 1+1 PROTECTION OF AN OPTICAL TRANSMISSION PATH - The present invention encompasses a method for 1+1 protection of an optical transmission path comprising a working path and a protection path that connect a first and second terminal node. In a working mode, an optical transmission signal is transmitted via the working path from the first to the second terminal node. At the second terminal node, the optical transmission signal is split into two optical sub-signals, and one of the optical sub-signals is sent via the protection path to a protection-path connection node as a working-path control signal. In the case of an interruption of the signal transmission via the working path, the protection-path connection node detects the absence of the working-path control signal and switches the system from the working mode to a protection mode in which signal transmission is conducted via a separate protection path. | 11-25-2010 |
