    Abstract: A passive optical network (PON) includes at least one optical network unit (ONU) at a downstream end and an optical line terminal (OLT) at an upstream end. Each ONU is dynamically allocated with an upstream communication window. During a laser always on (LAO) detection process, when the OLT receives an optical signal from the downstream end within an upstream idle window, the OLT determines that an LAO problem exists. The upstream idle window does not overlap with any upstream communication window. An anomaly detection method for the PON includes: during the LAO detection process, when the OLT receives an optical signal from the downstream end within the upstream idle window, determining, by the OLT, the LAO problem exists. An OLT includes an optical transceiver unit that optically communicates with the downstream end and output a receiving state signal and a control unit that determines whether the LAO problem exists.

    Abstract: One aspect of the present invention is a receiving apparatus including a reception unit that receives signal light frequency-modulated by a signal obtained by adding a main signal and a control signal having a lower frequency than the main signal, and converts the signal light into an analog electric signal, and a processing unit that acquires a code sequence corresponding to the control signal on the basis of the analog electric signal, in which the processing unit includes a frequency offset amount acquisition unit that acquires a frequency offset amount of the signal light acquired on the basis of the analog electric signal, and a determination unit that determines the code sequence corresponding to the control signal on the basis of the frequency offset amount acquired by the frequency offset amount acquisition unit.

    Abstract: A failure detection apparatus for submarine optical cables having a redundant configuration, the apparatus comprising, with a view to detecting a failure in an active transmission path and a standby transmission path: a first optical coupler which branches and outputs a supervisory signal to the active transmission path and the standby transmission path; a second switch functional unit which outputs the supervisory signal outputted from either the active transmission path or the standby transmission path that is specified as a test transmission path; and a transmission path monitoring unit which, on the basis of the supervisory signal received from the second switch functional unit, detects a failure taking place in said test transmission path.
