Inventor: KERSTEN PETER DR
IPC: H04B10/00
Filed: 1990-06-07
Abstract: In the transmission of optical signals over large distances by means of optical fibres, repeaters are used which convert the incoming optical signal into an electrical signal, amplify the electrical signal electronically and reconvert the amplified electrical signal once again into an optical signal. Such repeaters require a large outlay on circuitry. A direct optical amplifier consisting of a two- mode region 10, two inputs 11 and 12, and outputs 13 and 14 considerably reduces the outlay on circuitry. The essence of this arrangement is that the two-mode region 10 is filled with a material which exhibits non-linear optical behaviour. If there is continuous supply of the signal to be amplified via one of the inputs, and of light of high energy via the other, the amplified signal is available at the output of the amplifier. <IMAGE>

Abstract: 2.1 A circuit arrangement is to be specified by means of which permanent connections can be set up on the basis of network terminating devices without requiring the whole complexity for a PCM 2D system normally provided for this purpose. It should be possible to connect the permanent digital connection between switching systems among themselves and between a switching system and a subscriber terminal. 2.2 A specially constructed network terminating device for permanent connections is used which is supplied with power-feeding current and clock via its S interface connected to a switching system and outputs a supply voltage and a clock via its U interface leading to another switching system or to a terminal. Within this specially constructed network terminating device, a word-by-word conversion of control commands is carried out in both directions in order to adapt the interface chips to one another, which operate in a special operating mode. 2.3 A specially constructed network terminating device saves at least two of the functional units which are needed for the PCM 2D system. This results in an inexpensive solution for the switching of permanent digital connections, in which all methods standardised for the integrated-services digital network can be retained. <IMAGE>
