Abstract:
An optical system supporting timing synchronization, alignment and deskewing across optical modules includes a plurality of optical devices each providing an Optical Tributary Signal (OTSi) which are part of an Optical Tributary Signal Group (OTSiG); and a management communication mechanism between the plurality of optical devices, wherein each of the plurality of optical devices are timing synchronized using the management communication mechanism and Precision Time Protocol (PTP) messaging. Each of the plurality of optical devices can include delay circuitry configured to deskew an associated OTSi with respect to other OTSi signals in the OTSiG.

Claim (Index 16):
An optical modem supporting an Optical Tributary Signal (OTSi) which is part of an Optical Tributary Signal Group (OTSiG), the optical modem comprising:\n a coherent modem; circuitry configured to perform a plurality of Forward Error Correction (FEC), framing, and mapping; a time base which is synchronized with other optical modems in the OTSiG using a management communication mechanism and Precision Time Protocol (PTP) messaging; and delay measurement and control circuitry configured to measure delay, determine a relative skew, and deskew based on a common time base,. wherein the optical modem is a pluggable optical module compliant to one of a Multi Source Agreement (MSA) and Optical Internetworking Forum (OIF) Digital Coherent Optics (DCO).
