Abstract:
A method capable of optical packet switching even in a case where physical optical data in an optical packet switch has not the shape of a packet but the shape of continuous data, and a system therefore are provided. The optical switching method includes the steps of (a) detecting input terminals into which an optical packet is input, of an optical switch and switching the optical packet to destination output terminals of the optical packet, and (b) when there are the input terminals into which the optical packet is not inputted in step (a), detecting other input terminals into which the optical packet, which direct an output terminal among the plurality of output terminals connected to the input terminals, is inputted, and searching a blank output terminal and switching dummy data from the input terminal to the blank output terminal. Data having the shape of all input optical packets and data having not the shape of a packet but another shape can be switched into output terminals without omission, and thus data output when input data have the shape of continuous data maintain the shape of the continuous data.

PURPOSE: A multiwavelength fixing method and apparatus using an acousto-optic tunable filter is provided to reduce a signal noise due to a pilot signal by applying the pilot signal to an acousto-optic wavelength filter with different transmission wavelength and frequency conversion according to frequency of an acoustic wave. CONSTITUTION: Lights with different optical frequencies outputted from a light source are multiplexed by a multiplexer(12) and applied to a WDM(Wavelength Division Multiplexing)(10). The multiplexed optical signals are partially transmitted to a transmission system and partially to an acousto-optic tunable filter(14) for multiwavelength fixing. An etalon filter(16) has different transmission characteristics according to a wavelength, so that even if a light with a strength is inputted, the light is outputted with a different strength according to wavelength. An optical divider(15) divides a light into two to use one to measure a light strength and input the other to the etalon filter(16), thereby measuring strength and wavelength of inputted light. Two optical detectors(18,19) detect electrical signals and inputs them to a band pass filter(22). The band pass filter(22) passes only a required specific frequency of plural frequencies included in the inputted light and removes the other remaining frequencies than the specific frequency. A wavelength controller(21) detect wavelength information on corresponding optical frequency by optical frequencies of each light source(11) by using the electric signals with the wavelength detected by the optical detectors(18,19), and compares the detected wavelength information and a desired wavelength of the light source(11). If there is a difference between the two wavelengths, the wavelength controller(21) changes an environmental condition of the light source(11) to obtain the desired wavelength.

PURPOSE: An optical switching method and an apparatus therefor are provided to use an optical signal having a successive data format as a physical data format in an optical packet switch using a general optical transceiver. CONSTITUTION: An optical switch is switched so that an input terminal number is identical to an output terminal number(401). The optical switch judges an optical packet is inputted according to each channel(402). If the optical packet is inputted, the optical switch is switched to an output terminal having a destination number of the optical packet during a length of the optical packet(403). If the optical packet is not inputted, the optical switch judges whether an optical packet inputted from an other input terminal for the purpose of an output terminal switched to the input terminal in which the optical packet is not inputted exists(404). If the optical packet exists, the optical switch switches the optical packet to a current output terminal, retrieves an other empty output terminal, and switches a current input terminal to the retrieved output terminal(405).

Abstract:
There are provided an apparatus and method for recovering a clock signal from a burst mode signal. A first delay delays an input data signal for half of a time period of the input data signal, and produces a first delay signal. An XOR gate adds the input data signal and the first delay signal provided from the first delay, and provides an inverted signal of the added signal. An OR gate adds an output signal of the XOR gate and a second delay signal, and provides the added signal as a recovered clock signal. A second delay delays the added signal provided from the OR gate for an integer multiple of a time period of the input data signal, and produces the second delay signal that is provided to the OR gate. The frequency of the recovered clock signal is not limited by any delay in the gate elements due to a phase transition of the input data signal occurring when every other packet is provided.
