Patent EP-0684713-A2 (EP)
Inventor: EMURA KATSUMI
IPC: H04B10/27
Filed: 1995-05-26
Abstract: In an optical network comprising terminator nodes (15(Al) etc) assigned with frequency bands for transmitting transmission signals subcarrier-frequency multiplexed on optical signals of a predetermined number of optical wavelengths from one node to at least another, the nodes are grouped into terminator node groups (11 (A, B, C)), each assigned with selected wavelengths among the optical wavelengths except a specific wavelength specific thereto. One node group (11 (A)) transmits outgoing signals of the selected wavelengths to an analog repeater node (17(A)) for supplying ingoing signals of the specific wavelength to a common optical coupler (13). Supplied as outcoming signals of various wavelengths with such outgoing signals of other node groups (11 (B, C)) directed to the coupler, the repeater node supplies the one node group with incoming signals of the specific wavelength. Preferably, the repeater node comprises a photodetector detecting as send-in (receive-in) signals the transmission signals carried on the outgoing (outcoming) signals, bandbass filters for filtering the send-in (receive-in) signals into intermediate signals, frequency converters for the intermediate signals to produce send-out (receive-out) signals according to a demand assign scheme, and a light source producing the ingoing (incoming) signals carrying the send-out (receive-out) signals.

Abstract: In a transmitter side in an optical transmission system, an input binary signal is converted to duobinary signal, and said duobinary signal is applied to an optical modulation means which provides optical intensity modulation signal, wherein optical intensity for a center value of said duobinary signal is the minimum, optical intensity for other two values of said duobinary signal is the maximum, and optical phase for those two values is opposite with each other. In a receiver side, simple direct detection is carried out for receiving optical signal through an optical transmission line to provide demodulated binary signal. Thus, original binary signal is recovered without duobinary decoder and receiver sensitivity degradation. In the optical transmission system, optical carrier frequency component in signal spectrum is suppressed, signal bandwidth of modulated light is reduced as half as that of a prior art, so an optical transmission system for long distance, high bit rate and large traffic capacity is obtained.
