OPTICAL COMMUNICATION DEVICE, CONTROL METHOD AND OPTICAL COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18267991 titled 'OPTICAL COMMUNICATION DEVICE, CONTROL METHOD AND OPTICAL COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an optical communication device that detects light output from a user device, assigns a wavelength to the user device based on communication destination information, and notifies the user device of the assigned wavelength.

  • Detection unit connected to user device detects light output
  • Connection unit connects user device to control transceiver when light is detected
  • Acquisition unit acquires communication destination information via control transceiver
  • Assignment unit assigns a wavelength to user device based on acquired communication destination information
  • Notification unit notifies user device of assigned wavelength via control transceiver

Original Abstract Submitted

According to an aspect of the present invention, an optical communication device includes: a detection unit that is connected to a user device and detects light which is output from the connected user device; a connection unit that connects the user device and a control transceiver in a case where light is detected by the detection unit; an acquisition unit that acquires, via the control transceiver, communication destination information indicating a communication destination to which the user device requests connection; an assignment unit that assigns a wavelength to the user device according to the communication destination information acquired by the acquisition unit; and a notification unit that notifies the user device of wavelength information indicating the wavelength assigned by the assignment unit via the control transceiver.
