摘要： A method of initializing an optical communication link between nodes. Optical transmitters adapted to pre-compensate link impairments based upon an optical compensation parameters are utilized to establish an optical communications link. Pre-compensation parameter values are selected at a node for generating an optical signal. The value is selected until confirmation from the remote node is received that the optical signal transmission has been successful. The successful pre-compensation parameter value is then used to generate the optical signal for the communications link.

摘要： A method and system is provided for compensating polarization mode dispersion (PMD) in an optical communications system includes a controller designed to control a broadband PMD compensator to differentially delay light at each one of a plurality of selected wavelengths. At least one of the selected wavelengths lies between an adjacent pair of channel wavelengths of the optical communications system. A performance parameter value indicative of PMD is measured at each channel wavelength of the optical communications system. An estimated performance parameter value is then calculated at each selected wavelength, and an error function calculated as a function of wavelength based on the estimated performance parameter values. The broadband PMD compensator is then controlled to minimize the value of the error function.

摘要： Provided is an optical apparatus and method wherein power transfer coefficients arising from SRS are measured at a designated co-location point and the power of dithers, which are impressed on the channels of a multiplexed optical signal propagating through the optical apparatus, is measured at each co-location point. Within the optical apparatus distances between co-location points are short and the power transfer coefficients are effectively constant. Consequently, the power of each channel of the multiplexed optical signal at the co-location points is obtained from the power of the dithers at a respective one of the co-location points and the power transfer coefficients measured at the designated co-location point. In some embodiments, information on the channel power at the co-location points is used to provide instructions for compensating for fluctuations in channel power and/or channel count at an input and/or channel count within the optical apparatus.

摘要： A synchronizer/de-synchronizer maps continuous format signals of an arbitrary rate into frames of pre-selected single common rate, such as SONET frames, with no bits changed and very little jitter or wander added. In this way, the continuous format signal may be carried transparently as a tributary of a SONET network. Each frame comprises a definite number of fixed stuff bits, including transport overhead bits and reminder fixed stuff bits. A frame also comprises an adjustable number of adaptive stuff bits, resulting from the phase difference between the arbitrary rate and the common rate. A mapping function is performed in a tributary unit shelf of a SONET transport shelf, and the reverse mapping function is performed in a similar way at the far end of a SONET connection. The stuff bits are spread uniformly within the frame.

摘要： Multiple sub-streams are aharmonicaly interleaved into a high speed data signal by interleaving successive blocks of data from each sub-stream into the high-speed data signal using a predetermined interleaving pattern that is different for two consecutive sequences of N (an integer >2) blocks of data within the high-speed data signal. The resulting irregular distribution of bits of each sub-stream within the high speed data signal reduces the probability that error bursts due to low frequency noise will be localized in one or more of the recovered sub-stream extracted from the high speed data signal. This improved distribution of bit errors across the sub-streams reduces bit error rates in the most highly errored sub-streams, and thereby enables an increase in signal reach.

摘要： An OP-N connection is mapped through a communications network between first and second end-nodes via at least one intermediate node. The integrity and validity of the OP-N connection can be determined independently of SONET/SDH lines, sections or paths mapped through the network, and potentially utilizing bandwidth of the OP-N connection. Validation of the OP-N connection can be accomplished by inserting performance monitor (PM) information into a data signal at the first end-node. The PM information is inserted into the synchronous payload envelope (SPE) of a SONET/SDH data signal. At each intermediate node between the first and second end-nodes, the PM information may be extracted, examined and/or augmented or simply pointer processed before the data signal is forwarded. At the second end-point, the PM information is extracted and examined. Multiple levels of OP-N connections are supported, with each level being provided with a respective set of PM information carried in the SPE.
