摘要： An optical transmission system formed from a plurality of nodes interconnected in a ring configuration via at least two transmission media provides protection capacity for each optical channel. If a channel signal does not meet predetermined criteria, then a loss of signal indication is declared for the channel and one of a plurality of protection switching states is invoked to re-route service traffic carried by the impaired channel to its destination via corresponding protection capacity. The switching states include particular transmission states and at least “keep-alive” and “protection access” states.

摘要： A method and system for maximizing wavelength reuse in an optically protected wavelength-division-multiplexed (WDM) network, the WDM network supporting a plurality of service connections, includes associating service connections supported by non-overlapping paths to form respective service channel groups, and for each service channel group, assigning at least one common wavelength channel for establishing the service connections. In addition, for each of said groups, at least one common wavelength channel is assigned for establishing a shared protection path for the service connections of each of said groups. In addition, the wavelength channels assigned for establishing the shared protection paths for each of the groups may be used for providing service connections for the WDM network when not in use as shared protection paths. However such provisional service connections are dropped when the wavelength channels are needed to establish shared protection paths. Such provisional service connections may be offered at reduced cost.

摘要： The Multimode Interference coupler according to the invention has smoothly continuous inwardly tapered sidewalls (301) which define the width of the multimode region (W1) along the propagation axis of the device. The inward taper causes the average width of the device to be reduced in comparison to known couplers having straight sidewalls (202). Further, invention allows the access waveguides (303, 309) to remain sufficiently spaced, while reducing the overall length of the device, to avoid lithographic gap fill-in and unwanted optical coupling between the waveguides.

摘要： An optical duobinary transmission system and method are provided for transmitting optical duobinary signals across an optical transmission link having residual dispersion. The system includes a transmitter having a low bandwidth modulator, adapted to provide filtering for low pass filtered duobinary transmission. The transmission link is designed such that the residual dispersion of the transmission link substantially compensates for signal distortion from the transmitter.

摘要： A dual-output Mach-Zehnder modulator (MZM2) and configurations of optical transmitters based on the MZM2 which obviate the optical splitter that is typically used to provide keep-alive functionality in redundantly-connected, protected optical networks, SONET add-drop multiplexers, and optical IP routers. The configurations provide equivalent keep-alive utility at a reduced system cost relative to the prior art. The configurations also support enhanced Operations, Administration, Maintenance, and Provisioning (OAM&P) functionality at little to no additional cost relative to the prior art. Instead of being a direct copy of the service signal, the keep-alive of this configuration is an inverted version of the service signal. This inverted version of the service signal is supported at a client by utilization of means for detecting and righting the inverted signal. The inverted state of the signal on the protection path can be used as an inband indicator to notify the client in the event of a failure on the service path. This inband indicator requires little or no additional circuitry to accommodate. Another aspect of this invention allows the provisionable substitution of the inverted signal with a preemptive signal to support low-priority traffic when there is no fault on the service path S.
摘要翻译：双输出马赫 - 曾德尔调制器（MZM2）以及基于MZM2的光发射机的配置，可消除通常用于在冗余连接的保护光网络中提供保持功能的光分路器，SONET分插复用器，和光IP路由器。这些配置相对于现有技术以降低的系统成本提供等效的保活实用程序。这些配置还支持增强的操作，管理，维护和配置（OAM＆P）功能，相对于现有技术几乎没有额外的成本。代替服务信号的直接副本，这种配置的保持是服务信号的反转版本。通过利用用于检测和校正反相信号的装置，在客户端支持服务信号的这种反向版本。保护路径上的信号的反转状态可以用作带内指示器，以在服务路径发生故障的情况下通知客户端。该带内指示器需要很少的或不需要额外的电路来容纳。本发明的另一方面允许在服务路径S上没有故障的情况下，使用抢占信号来替换反向信号以支持低优先级业务。
