The present invention relates to an optical transceiver using FEC, an optical transceiving system comprising the same, and a remote optical wavelength control method and, specifically, to an optical transceiver using FEC, the optical transceiver comprising: a laser diode driver (LDD) for driving a laser diode (LD) for outputting light; a transmitter optical sub-assembly (TOSA) for transmitting an optical signal received from the LD driver; a receiver optical sub-assembly (ROSA) for receiving the optical signal from the transmitter optical sub-assembly; a micro controller unit (MCU) for controlling the transmitter optical sub-assembly and the receiver optical sub-assembly and analyzing the optical signal; and a forward error correction (FEC) which is controlled by the micro controller unit and generates the optical signal by including, in an overhead excess data frame, control or monitoring request information of a subscriber-side base station.
REACQUIRING COMMUNICATION LINK BASED ON HISTORICAL DATA
The disclosure provides for a method for reacquiring a communication link between a first communication device and a second communication device. The method includes using one or more processors of the first communication device to receive historical data related to the first communication device and an environment surrounding the first communication device. The one or more processors are then used to determine one or more trends in the historical data related to fading of the communication link. Based on the one or more trends, the one or more processors are used to determine a starting time and an initial search direction for a search for the communication link. The one or more processors then execute the search at the starting time from the initial search direction.
High power and data delivery in a communications network with safety and fault protection
In one embodiment, a method includes receiving at a remote network device, power and data from a central network device, wherein the power is used to power the remote network device, performing auto-negotiation with the central network device, wherein the auto-negotiation includes operating the remote network device in a low voltage mode during fault sensing of a power circuit at the remote network device, and selecting a power operating mode, wherein selecting the power operating mode includes selecting a high voltage mode if no fault is detected during the fault sensing, the high voltage mode comprising DC (direct current) pulse power. An apparatus is also disclosed herein.
Subsea optical communication network
A communication system includes a first and second trunk terminals, a plurality of communication trunks disposed along a floor of a body of water, and power feed equipment. Each communication trunk couples the first trunk terminal to the second trunk terminal and includes at least one signal amplifier configured to amplify a signal conveyed along the corresponding communication trunk. The power feed equipment is coupled to the plurality of communication trunks and is configured to deliver power along each communication trunk to power the at least one signal amplifier of the communication trunk. The power feed equipment is also configured to receive a shunt fault notification identifying an electrical shunt fault along a faulted communication trunk of the plurality of communication trunks. In response to the shunt fault notification, the power feed equipment is configured to cease delivery of power along at least one communication trunk.
Board of optical line terminal and optical line terminal
The present disclosure relates to the field of optical communications. A board is disclosed. The board includes a level adjustment circuit, a detection apparatus, and a control apparatus. The detection apparatus is configured to: when the detection apparatus is connected to an optical module, receive an indication signal output by an upstream optical signal detection pin; continuously detect a received first level signal and the received indication signal. If there is a second level signal, opposite to the first level signal, the detection apparatus notifies the control apparatus that the optical module is inserted. If there is no second level signal in the signal received within the preset duration, the detection apparatus notifies the control apparatus that the optical module is absent. This makes the optical module less dependent on the in-position pin, and decreases a quantity of pins of the optical module.

Transmission device, transmitter, and transmission method
An optical transmitter includes a DMT modulating unit that allocates information signals to SCs and that generates a DMT signal by performing multi-level modulation on each of the information signals allocated to each of the SCs. The optical transmitter includes a mixer that shifts, on the basis of the probe result of the DMT signal and frequency information on a wireless signal that is input, the carrier frequency of the wireless signal so as not to overlap the SC to which the information signal in the DMT signal is allocated. Furthermore, the optical transmitter includes a multiplexing unit that multiplexes the DMT signal received from the DMT modulating unit and the wireless signal in which the carrier frequency has been shifted and outputs the multiplexed signal.

A test and measurement device has a connection to allow the test and measurement device to connect to an optical transceiver, one or more processors, configured to execute code that causes the one or more processors to: initially set operating parameters for the optical transceiver to average parameters, acquire a waveform from the optical transceiver, measure the acquired waveform and determine if operation of the transceiver passes or fails, send the waveform and the operating parameters to a machine learning system to obtain estimated parameters if the transceiver fails, adjust the operating parameters based upon the estimated parameters, and repeat the acquiring, measuring, sending, and adjusting as needed until the transceiver passes. A method to tune optical transceivers includes connecting a transceiver to a test and measurement device, setting operating parameters for the transceiver to an average set of parameters, acquiring a waveform from the transceiver, measuring the waveform to determine if the transceiver passes or fails, sending the waveform and operating parameters to a machine learning system when the transceiver fails, using the machine learning system to provide adjusted operating parameters, setting the operating parameters to the adjusted parameters, and repeating the acquiring, measuring, sending, using, and setting until the transceiver passes.
