20080232806 | TRANSPONDER UNIT, TRANSPONDER UNIT CONTROL APPARATUS, TRANSPONDER UNIT CONTROL METHOD AND RECORDING MEDIUM RECORDING TRANSPONDER UNIT CONTROL PROGRAM - A transponder includes a CDR section that extracts clocks from an input signal, an oscillating section that can output various frequencies to the CDR section, a frequency instruction processing section that instructs the oscillating section to output an arbitrary frequency, a detection processing section, and a frame processing section control section. The detection processing section determines whether the frequency output from the oscillating section and an input signal synchronize in frequency or not in response to an instruction by the frequency instruction processing section, and detects a synchronization frequency. The frame processing section control section operates a frame processing section based on the synchronization frequency detected by the detection processing section. | 09-25-2008 |
20090297151 | Optical transmitting apparatus and optical transmitting and receiving apparatus - An optical transmitting apparatus includes an unused-wavelength determining unit. The unused-wavelength determining unit monitors the wavelength of the optical signal transmitted by transmitting apparatuses to determine an unused wavelength currently not in use. The transmitting apparatuses contain a stopping unit that stops transmitting the optical signal when no signal is input, an unused-wavelength obtaining unit that obtains the unused wavelength determined by the unused-wavelength determining unit after the optical signal transmission is stopped and is then restarted, and a transmitting unit that converts a new signal to an optical signal of the unused wavelength obtained by the unused-wavelength obtaining unit to transmit the optical signal to the receiving apparatus. | 12-03-2009 |
20100067917 | OPTICAL TRANSMISSION APPARATUS, OPTICAL TRANSMISSION METHOD, AND OPTICAL TRANSCEIVER - An aspect of the embodiments utilizes an optical transmission apparatus which includes a rough adjustment execution portion that monitors a bit error rate of an optical signal for set values of a dispersion compensator where the set values have been set less closely to each other within a dispersion compensation control range than when a wavelength dispersion value set in the dispersion compensator is determined, and carries out a rough adjustment to determine a comparison threshold value used to set the wavelength dispersion value based on the monitored bit error rate, and a fine adjustment execution portion that monitors the bit error rate for the dispersion compensator the set values have been set more closely to each other, and carries out an adjustment to determine a wavelength dispersion value corresponding to the midpoint between the two acquired bit error rates as the wavelength dispersion value of the dispersion compensator. | 03-18-2010 |
