OPTICAL TRANSMITTING APPARATUS AND SIGNAL DETECTION METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18269491 titled 'OPTICAL TRANSMITTING APPARATUS AND SIGNAL DETECTION METHOD
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes an optical transmission device that includes the following components:
- FM batch conversion unit: Performs FM batch conversion on a carrier signal input to generate an FM batch conversion signal.
- Signal branching unit: Branches the FM batch conversion signal into a first path and a second path.
- Optical transmission unit: Provided in the first path, converts the FM batch conversion signal into an optical signal and transmits it outside.
- Detection unit: Provided in the second path, detects quality degradation of the FM batch conversion signal based on the signal level.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Optical communication systems
- Broadcasting systems
- Telecommunication networks
Problems solved by this technology:
- Ensures high-quality transmission of signals
- Detects and addresses signal degradation in real-time
Benefits of this technology:
- Improved signal transmission quality
- Real-time monitoring and detection of signal degradation
- Enhanced reliability and performance of optical transmission systems
Original Abstract Submitted
An optical transmission device includes: an FM batch conversion unit that performs FM batch conversion on a carrier signal input from the outside, to generate an FM batch conversion signal; a signal branching unit that causes the FM batch conversion signal to branch into a first path and a second path; an optical transmission unit that is provided in the first path, converts the FM batch conversion signal into an optical signal, and transmits the optical signal to the outside; and a detection unit that is provided in the second path, and detects quality degradation of the FM batch conversion signal on the basis of the signal level of the FM batch conversion signal.
