    摘要: A radio-frequency-signal generator generates an RF signal. An optical monitor monitors a first intensity of a reference signal and a second intensity of a drop signal. A reference-frequency determining unit determines, based on the first intensity, a first frequency of an RF signal that causes the AOTF to output the reference signal. A temperature detecting unit detects a temperature of the AOTF. A frequency calculating unit calculates a second frequency of an RF signal that causes the AOTF to output a drop signal of a desired wavelength. A control unit controls the RF-signal generator to generate the RF signal of the second frequency calculated.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a control method and device for an optical filter, and a primary object of the present invention is to achieve accurate tracking control of the optical filter. Disclosed herein is a control method for an optical filter including first and second optical filter units cascaded, each having an input and first and second outputs. The first output of the first optical filter unit is connected to the input of the second optical filter unit. First light output from the second output of the first optical filter unit is converted into a first electrical signal having a level corresponding to the power of the first light, and second light output from the second output of the second optical filter unit is converted into a second electrical signal having a level corresponding to the power of the second light. A control signal is generated according to the first and second electrical signals. Then, the first and second optical filter units are controlled according to the control signal. According to this method, accurate tracking control of the optical filter can be achieved.

    摘要: M wavelength separating sections receive multiplexed optical signals each having N kinds of wavelengths different. Each of the multiplexed optical signals are separated into N optical signals. M relays conduct optical reproduction and relay to convert each of the N optical signals into electric signals and then produce optical signals modulated with desired optical wavelengths. A refill section mutually refills M sets of the reproduced and relayed optical signals. A focusing section focuses the M sets of optical signals refilled in the refill section. A light source supplies input lights having desired wavelengths, which lights are modulated in the relays. The light source includes N light sources outputting N kinds of optical wavelengths. A multiplexer/brancher multiplexes the lights from the N light sources to produce a multiplexed light and branches the multiplexed light into M×N distributed lights. M wavelength filters distribuitively receive N distributed lights of the M×N distributed lights.

    摘要: The present invention relates to an optical cross connect unit comprising M wavelength separating sections for receiving multiplexed optical signals each having N kinds of wavelengths different from each other through M optical fibers, respectively, and for wavelength-separating each of the multiplexed optical signals into N optical signals, M optical reproduction relay sections each for conducting an optical reproduction and relay in a manner of making a conversion of each of the N optical signals, wavelength-separated in each of the wavelength separating sections, into an electric signal and then modulating it with a desired optical wavelength, a refill section for mutually refilling M sets of optical signals optically reproduced and relayed in the optical reproduction relay sections, a focusing section for focusing the M sets of optical signals refilled in the refill section, and a light source unit for supplying input lights having desired wavelengths to be modulated in the M optical reproduction relay sections. The light source unit includes N light sources for outputting lights having the N kinds of optical wavelengths, a multiplexing and branching section for multiplexing the lights from the N light sources to produce a multiplexed light having N kinds of optical wavelength components and further for branching the multiplexed light into M×N lights to output them as multiplexed and distributed lights, M wavelength filter sections for distributively receiving N multiplexed and distributed lights of the M×N multiplexed and distributed lights branched in the multiplexing and branching section to output N lights due to the passage of only arbitrary wavelengths of the N kinds of optical wavelengths, and a wavelength setting control section for setting optical wavelengths, which pass through the wavelength filter sections, so that they differ from each other. The N lights from each of the M wavelength filter sections are supplied as the input lights. In the case that many light sources are necessary for the modulation processing by modulators or the like, this optical cross connect unit is also suitable because of using given wavelengths from a small number of light sources for a lot of modulation processing.
