Provided is a wavelength path communication node device with no collision of wave lengths and routes, capable of outputting arbitrary wavelengths, and capable of outputting them to arbitrary routes. An add/drop multiplexer (11) includes a communication unit (101) that communicates an optical signal with at least one client device and at least one network and a control unit (102) that indicates a transfer destination of the optical signal according to an attribute of the received optical signal to the communication unit (101). The control unit (102) indicates an attenuation amount of the optical signal to the communication unit (101) for each connected device. When a connected device is changed, the control unit (102) instructs the communication unit (101) to change the attenuation amount. The communication unit (101) attenuates the optical signal with the attenuation amount indicated by the control unit (102) and transfers the attenuated optical signal to a transfer destination.

A transponder includes a multiplexing section, optical transmitters, optical receivers, an extracting section, and a warning monitor section, wherein the extracting section includes a first signal extracting unit for extracting reception data, a second signal extracting unit for extracting reception data, and a reception signal switching section. When carrier signals are in a link-establishable state, the reception signal switching section supplies reception electric signals generated by the optical receivers to the first signal extracting unit and outputs the reception data. When a carrier signal is in a non-link-establishable state, the reception signal switching section supplies a reception electric signal generated by an optical receiver using a carrier signal in the link-establishable state to the second signal extracting unit and outputs the reception data extracted by the second signal extracting unit.

A transmitter can include a laser operable to output an optical signal; a digital signal processor operable to receive user data and provide electrical signals based on the data; and a modulator operable to modulate the optical signal to provide optical subcarriers based on the electrical signals. A first one of the subcarriers carriers carries first TDMA encoded information and second TDMA encoded information, such that the first TDMA encoded information is indicative of a first portion of the data and is carried by the first one of the subcarriers during a first time slot, and the second TDMA encoded information is indicative of a second portion of the data and is carried by the first one of the subcarriers during a second time slot. The first TDMA encoded information is associated with a first node remote from the transmitter and the second TDMA encoded information is associated with a second node remote from the transmitter. A second one of the subcarriers carries third information that is not TDMA encoded, the third information being associated with a third node remote from the transmitter. A receiver and system also are described.

A reduced-complexity optical packet switch which can provide a deterministic guaranteed rate of service to individual traffic flows is described. The switch contains N input ports, M output ports and N*M Virtual Output Queues (VOQs). Packets are associated with a flow f, which arrive an input port and depart on an output port, according to a predetermined routing for the flow. These packets are buffered in a VOQ. The switch can be configured to store several deterministic periodic schedules, which can be managed by an SDN control-plane. A scheduling frame is defined as a set of F consecutive time-slots, where data can be transmitted over connections between input ports and output ports in each time-slot. Each input port can be assigned a first deterministic periodic transmission schedule, which determines which VOQ is selected to transmit, for every time-slot in the scheduling frame. Each input port can be assigned a second deterministic periodic schedule, which determines which traffic flow within a VOQ is selected to transmit. Each input port can be assigned a third deterministic periodic schedule, which specifies to which VOQ an arriving packet (if any) is destined, for each time-slot in a scheduling frame. Each input port can be assigned a fourth deterministic periodic schedule, which specifies to which Flow-VOQ within a VOQ an arriving packet (if any) is destined. In this manner, each traffic flow can receive a deterministic guaranteed-rate of transmission through the switch.

This application provides a tunable optical add/drop multiplexer T-OADM. A beam adjustment apparatus changes an incident angle at which an incident beam is emitted onto an optical filter. After the optical filter splits the incident beam into a transmitted beam and a reflected beam, the beam adjustment apparatus further adjusts a transmission direction of the transmitted beam emergent from the optical filter and a transmission direction of the reflected beam emergent from the optical filter, so that the transmitted beam and the reflected beam are output to corresponding ports, so as to implement a flexible and controllable T-OADM apparatus. This application may be applied to the optical communication field, for example, may be used to implement add/drop multiplexing of tributary signals in an optical domain in fields such as a long-haul backbone and a metropolitan area network.
