20140086573 | METHOD, TRANSPORT APPARATUS, AND SYSTEM FOR DETECTING SUBMARINE OPTICAL CABLE LINE - A method for detecting a submarine optical cable line includes: splitting a detection signal input to a first optical functional unit in an optical functional module of an optical cable line into a first detection signal and a second detection signal; directly coupling and looping back the first detection signal to an output end of a second optical functional unit in a direction opposite to the first optical functional unit to constitute a first loopback path, and outputting a first detection loopback signal; looping back the second detection signal passing through the first optical functional unit to the output end of the second optical functional unit to constitute a second loopback path, and outputting a second detection loopback signal; and detecting a status of the submarine optical cable line according to power of the first detection loopback signal and power of the second detection loopback signal. | 03-27-2014 |
20140255020 | Method, Apparatus, and System for Disaster Recovery of Optical Communication System - A method, an optical add-drop multiplexer branching unit, and a system for disaster recovery of an optical communication system are provided. The method for disaster recovery of an optical communication system using an optical add-drop multiplexer unit (OADM) includes: detecting a transmission link fault in an optical communication system; and when a transmission link fault is detected, switching the state of a link where the transmission link fault occurs from pass-through to loopback, so that an optical signal input from a non-faulty end of the link is looped back to the end for outputting. In this way, when a transmission link fault occurs in an optical communication system, the power level of a link where the transmission link fault occurs can be maintained by using the solutions in the embodiments of the present invention, thereby keeping transmission performance stable. | 09-11-2014 |
