Abstract:
There is provided mechanisms for utility communications. A method is performed by a transmitter. The method includes superimposing a control and protection signal for utility communications on top of an existing optical signal transmitted over an optical fiber to form a composite signal, wherein the control and protection signal has lower bit rate than the existing optical signal. The method includes obtaining feedback by draining a portion of the composite signal from the optical fiber. The method includes adjusting amplitude of the control and protection signal according to the portion of the composite signal

Claim (Index 8):
The method according to  claim 1 , wherein the portion corresponds to 10% in terms of power of the composite signal.
