Definitions
- the present invention relates to an optical receiver, etc.
- optical undersea cable system branching devices (Branch Units, BUs) and multiplexing/demultiplexing devices (Optical Add Drop Multiplexers, OADMs) are installed on the seabed.
- Some of this optical undersea equipment has the function of receiving control light sent by land equipment and sending response light back to the land equipment.
- the response light is a signal that includes a response signal.
- the response signal is response data to the control light, and is multiplexed with a main signal that includes user data and transmitted.
- the main signal is an optical signal that includes user data, and wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) signal light is mainly used. Wavelength division multiplexing signal light is referred to as "WDM light” below.
- WDM light Wavelength division multiplexing signal light
- the first modulation method is a method in which the drive current of a pump laser diode in an optical undersea device is intensity modulated by a response signal.
- the pump laser diode is a light source used in an optical amplifier that amplifies WDM light.
- the entire bandwidth of the WDM light propagating through the optical undersea cable system is intensity modulated by the response signal.
- this modulation method is referred to as the "full-wave modulation method”
- the optical signal generated by the full-wave modulation method is referred to as the "full-wave modulated signal.”
- the modulation depth is set to a few percent (%) in order to suppress the effect of modulation on the transmission quality of the main signal.
- the modulation depth is the ratio of the power A of the response signal contained in the power of the modulated light to the power B of the light before modulation, i.e., A/B.
- the second modulation method uses a dedicated optical carrier used only for transmitting the response signal, and modulates the intensity of the optical carrier with the response signal.
- the optical carrier is wavelength-multiplexed with the WDM light and transmitted.
- This modulation method is hereinafter referred to as the "single wavelength modulation method”
- the optical signal generated by the single wavelength modulation method is hereinafter referred to as the "single wavelength modulated signal”.
- the optical carrier used to generate the single wavelength modulated signal is hereinafter referred to as the "response carrier”.
- the wavelength of the optical carrier used in the single wavelength modulation method is different from the WDM light, and is a wavelength that can be separated from the WDM light by an optical filter or the like.
- the WDM light is not affected by the modulation, so the modulation depth of the response carrier can be higher than in the full wave modulation method.
- the modulation depth of the response carrier of a single wavelength modulated signal is several tens of percent.
- Both the full-wave modulated signal and the single-wavelength modulated signal include a response signal from the optical undersea equipment.
- the full-wave modulated signal and the single-wavelength modulated signal are collectively referred to as "response light.”
- response light may be used together.
- Patent Document 1 describes a wavelength multiplexing transmission device that has a function for adjusting the level of an optical signal output from an optical amplifier.
- the response carrier is multiplexed with the WDM light and transmitted from the optical undersea equipment to the onshore equipment. For this reason, even if the modulation depth of the response carrier contained in the single wavelength modulated signal is about 40%, the modulation depth of the entire single wavelength modulated signal including the WDM light may be lower than that, for example, less than 1%. For example, when a single wavelength modulated signal is received using an opto-electrical conversion circuit designed for a full-wave modulated signal with a modulation depth of about 4%, the power of the response carrier in the power of the single wavelength modulated signal may fall below the level that the opto-electrical conversion circuit can receive, and the response signal may not be demodulated.
- the full-wave modulation method and the single-wavelength modulation method are used together to transmit the response light, it is necessary to prepare different photoelectric conversion circuits according to the modulation method.
- the photoelectric conversion circuit for the single-wavelength modulation signal is a circuit optimized for a lower reception level so that the response signal can be demodulated even from the response light of the single-wavelength modulation method with a low modulation degree.

- First Embodiment 1 is a diagram showing an example of the configuration of an optical receiver 100 according to a first embodiment of the present invention.
- the optical receiver 100 includes a first optical interconnect circuit 110, a second optical interconnect circuit 120, a level adjustment circuit 130, and an optical/electrical converter (O/E) 140.

- the optical level of the second response light is in a second range.
- the first range and the second range do not overlap.
- the first response signal and the second response signal can be collectively referred to as a response signal.
- the response signal is, for example, a signal indicating a processing result in an external optical communication device connected to the optical receiver 100, but is not limited to this.
- the external optical communication device is, for example, an optical submarine device that transmits user data using WDM light, such as a BU or an OADM.
- the first optical connection circuit 110 is one form of optical connection means and can be called the first optical connection means.
- a first path 111 and a second path 112 are arranged in parallel between the first optical connection circuit 110 and the second optical connection circuit 120.
- the second optical connection circuit 120 outputs one of the light input from the first path 111 and the light input from the second path 112 to the photoelectric conversion circuit 140.
- the second optical connection circuit 120 is one form of optical connection means, and can be called a second optical connection means.
- the photoelectric conversion circuit 140 receives light input from the second optical connection circuit 120, and outputs a response signal contained in the received light as an electrical signal to the outside of the optical receiver 100.
- the range of optical reception levels (hereinafter referred to as the "dynamic range") in which the photoelectric conversion circuit 140 can output a response signal from the response light is within a first range, and is not within a second range.
- the dynamic range in which the photoelectric conversion circuit 140 can output a response signal from the input light is within a first range, and is not within a second range.
- the photoelectric conversion circuit 120 with such a function is one form of photoelectric conversion means.
- the second path 112 is provided with a level adjustment circuit 130.
- the level adjustment circuit 130 adjusts the optical level of the light including the second response signal so that the second response signal can be output from the photoelectric conversion circuit 140.
- the level adjustment circuit 130 is one form of level adjustment means.
- the optical receiver 100 with such a configuration can suppress an increase in the size of the optical receiver when receiving optical signals in which response signals are multiplexed using different multiplexing methods. This is because the level adjustment circuit 130 adjusts the level of the input optical signal so that the second response signal can be demodulated in the photoelectric conversion circuit 140. With such a configuration, the second response signal can be demodulated from the second response light using the photoelectric conversion circuit 140 whose reception level has been adjusted so that the first response signal can be demodulated from the first response light.
- Second Embodiment 2 is a diagram showing an example of the configuration of an optical monitoring system 1 according to a second embodiment of the present invention.
- the optical monitoring system 1 includes an optical receiver 200 and a monitoring control device 800.
- the optical receiver 200 includes optical switches (OSW) 210 and 220, a level adjustment circuit 230, and an opto-electrical conversion circuit (O/E) 240.
- OSW optical switches
- O/E opto-electrical conversion circuit
- Optical switches 210 and 220 are both 1x2 optical switches.
- Response light is input to the common port of optical switch 210 from outside optical receiver 200.
- the response light is an optical signal including a response signal, and is a full-wave modulated signal or a single-wavelength modulated signal transmitted by an optical communication device not shown.
- the optical communication device is an optical submarine device such as a BU or OADM. When the optical communication device receives the control light transmitted by the monitoring and control device 800, it transmits a response light back to optical receiver 200.
- the control light includes a control signal that controls the optical communication device and requests the return of a response signal.
- the response signal which is a response to the control signal, is multiplexed in the response light by a full-wave modulation method or a single-wavelength modulation method.
- the full-wave modulation method is a method of intensity-modulating WDM light by a response signal.
- the single-wavelength modulation method is a method of intensity-modulating an optical carrier (response carrier) of a wavelength different from that of the WDM light by a response signal. Note that in each embodiment of the present application, the full-wave modulated signal and the single-wavelength modulated signal are not input to the optical receiver at the same time. In addition, whether the response light is a full-wave modulated signal or a single-wavelength modulated signal varies depending on the optical communication device.
- the common port of the optical switch 210 is connected to an optical transmission device installed outside the optical receiver 200.
- the optical switch 210 When the response light input from outside the optical receiver 200 is a full-wave modulated signal, the optical switch 210 outputs the response light to path 211.
- the response light When the response light is a single-wavelength modulated signal, the optical switch 210 outputs the response light to path 212.
- the common port of the optical switch 220 is connected to the photoelectric conversion circuit 240.
- the optical switch 220 connects the path 212 to the photoelectric conversion circuit 240.
- the optical switch 220 connects the output of the level adjustment circuit 230 to the photoelectric conversion circuit 240.
- Path 211 is an optical path that directly connects optical switch 210 and optical switch 220. No optical circuit that changes the properties of the propagating light is arranged on path 211.
- path 212 is an optical path that connects optical switch 210 and optical switch 220 via level adjustment circuit 230.
- Level adjustment circuit 230 performs processing for the input single-wavelength modulated signal so that a response signal can be demodulated in photoelectric conversion circuit 240. The level adjustment circuit 230 will be described later.
- the photoelectric conversion circuit 240 converts the light input from the path 211 or 212 through the optical switch 220 into an electrical signal and demodulates the response signal contained therein.
- the dynamic range of the photoelectric conversion circuit 240 is adjusted so that the response signal can be demodulated over the entire fluctuation range of the power of the full-wave modulated signal input from the optical switch 220.
- the dynamic range of the photoelectric conversion circuit 240 is not necessarily optimized so that the response signal can be demodulated over the fluctuation range of the power of the response carrier of the single-wave modulated signal input from the optical switch 220.
- the response signal is superimposed on only one response carrier, so the power of the response signal in the power of the response carrier is smaller than the power of the response signal superimposed on the WDM light in the full-wave modulated signal.
- the optical power of the response signal contained in the single-wavelength signal may be 1% or less when converted to the modulation depth in the full-wave modulated signal.
- a photoelectric conversion circuit 240 optimized for receiving a full-wave modulated signal is used, there is a risk that the response signal cannot be demodulated from the response carrier of the single-wavelength modulated signal.
- the response carrier of the single wavelength modulated signal is amplified using the level adjustment circuit 230.
- the photoelectric conversion circuit 240 can demodulate the response signal from both the WDM light and the response carrier within its dynamic range.
- the demodulated response signal is output to the outside of the optical receiver 200.
- the response signal may be input to the monitoring and control device 800.
- FIG. 3 is a diagram explaining the level adjustment circuit 230.
- the level adjustment circuit 230 includes optical filters (Filter, FIL) 231 and 232, and an optical amplifier (Amplifier, AMP) 233.
- FIL optical filters
- Ammplifier AMP
- FIG. 3 an example of the spectrum of the light output from the optical switch 210 is shown diagrammatically with the horizontal axis representing the wavelength and the vertical axis representing the level (power).
- the white parts diagrammatically represent fluctuations in the intensity of the spectrum as a result of intensity modulation by the response signal.
- the response light is a single-wavelength modulated signal
- the optical switch 210 outputs the response light to the path 212
- the optical switch 220 connects the optical switch 210 and the path 212.
- the optical filter 231 removes the WDM light from the single wavelength modulated signal input from the optical switch 210, and outputs only the response carrier modulated by the response signal. Since the response carrier has a different wavelength from the WDM light, the optical filter 231 can separate only the response carrier from the response light using a dielectric multilayer film or the like.
- the response carrier is amplified by the optical amplifier 233. The gain of the optical amplifier 233 is set so that the photoelectric conversion circuit 240 can demodulate the response signal from the response carrier.
- the optical filter 232 is a narrow-band optical bandpass filter that removes ASE (Amplified Spontaneous Emission) generated in the optical amplifier 233.
- ASE Ampton
- the optical filter 232 the effect of noise due to ASE light can be reduced when demodulating the response signal. Note that if the power of the ASE light is at a level that does not affect the quality of the demodulated response signal, the optical filter 232 may be omitted.
- the optical switches 210 and 220 select path 211 when the optical signal input to the optical switch 210 is a full-wave modulated signal, and select path 212 when the optical signal input to the optical switch 210 is a single-wavelength modulated signal.
- Control (switching instructions) for the optical switches 210 and 220 may be performed by the monitoring and control device 800 as described below.
- the monitoring and control device 800 transmits a control signal to the optical communication device as control light, and the optical communication device that receives the control light generates a response signal indicating the content (e.g., the result of control execution) corresponding to the control signal contained in the control light.
- the response signal is converted into response light by the optical communication device using a full-wave modulation method or a single-wavelength modulation method, and is transmitted to the optical receiver 200.
- the monitoring and control device 800 also holds information on the timing at which the control light was sent to each optical transmission device. In the optical communication device, the reception of the control light triggers the transmission of a response light. The monitoring and control device 800 also holds information on the modulation method of the response light for each optical communication device that transmits the response light. Therefore, the monitoring and control device 800 transmits a switching instruction to the optical receiver 200 to switch the optical switches 210 and 220 according to the modulation method of the response light of the optical communication device to which the control light is to be transmitted. The switching instruction is transmitted before the response light from the optical communication device is received by the optical receiver 200. With this control, the optical receiver 200 can select the path 211 or 212 according to the modulation method of the response light when it receives the response light corresponding to the control light.
- FIG. 4 is a diagram showing an example of the configuration of the monitoring and control device 800.
- the monitoring and control device 800 includes a first transmission circuit 801, a second transmission circuit 802, and a database 803.
- the first transmission circuit 801 transmits control light to the optical transmission device.
- the control light is an optical signal including an instruction to transmit a full-wave modulated signal (first response light) or a single-wavelength modulated signal (second response light).
- the database 803 stores the correspondence between the optical transmission device and the type of response light (whether the response light is a full-wave modulated signal or a single-wavelength modulated signal).
- the database 803 also stores the timing of transmitting the control light.
- the second transmission circuit 802 transmits a switching instruction for the optical switches 210 and 220 to the optical receiver 200.
- the switching instruction is transmitted before the response light from the optical communication device arrives at the optical receiver 200. This allows the optical receiver 200 to distribute the response light to path 211 or path 212 depending on the type of the response light.
- the first transmission circuit 801 and the second transmission circuit 802 are both forms of a transmission means.
- the first transmission circuit 801 can be called the first transmission means, and the second transmission circuit 802 can be called the second transmission means.
- the optical communication device to which the monitoring and control device 800 transmits the control light transmits a response signal to the optical receiver 200 using full-wave modulation.
- the monitoring and control device 800 switches the optical switches 210 and 220 to the path 211 side. Because the response light is a full-wave modulated signal, the photoelectric conversion circuit 240 can perform photoelectric conversion on the response light as is and demodulate the response signal.
- the optical communication device to which the monitoring and control device 800 sends a control light transmits a response signal to the optical receiver 200 using the single wavelength modulation method.
- the monitoring and control device 800 switches the optical switches 210 and 220 to the path 212 side before the response light arrives at the optical receiver 200.
- This causes the response carrier to be amplified in the level adjustment circuit 230.
- the power of the response carrier is set to a value within the dynamic range of the photoelectric conversion circuit 240 by the optical amplifier 233. Therefore, the photoelectric conversion circuit 240 can demodulate the response signal by photoelectrically converting the amplified response carrier.
- the optical receiver 200 and the optical monitoring system 1 including the same can suppress an increase in the size of the optical receiver that processes multiple response lights in which response signals are multiplexed using different multiplexing methods.
- the database 803 may store the received response signal. This effect can also be obtained in the first and second modified examples described below.
- the optical monitoring system 2 includes an optical receiver 201 instead of the optical receiver 200 of the optical monitoring system 1.
- the optical receiver 201 differs from the optical receiver 200 in that it includes a level adjustment circuit 230A instead of the level adjustment circuit 230.
- the level adjustment circuit 230A includes optical filters 231 and 232, and optical amplifiers 233 and 234.
- the optical switch 210 switches the optical path to path 212 so that the response light is input to the level adjustment circuit 230A.
- the functions of the optical filter 231, optical amplifier 233, and optical filter 232 of the level adjustment circuit 230 are the same as those described in FIG. 3.
- the response carrier output from the optical filter 232 is amplified in the optical amplifiers 233 and 234. Since the optical receiver 201 includes the optical amplifier 234 in addition to the optical amplifier 233, the response carrier can be further amplified even when the gain of the optical amplifier 233 alone is insufficient.
- the amplified response carrier is input to the optical switch 220. As a result, it is possible to demodulate the response signal from the single-wavelength modulated signal in the photoelectric conversion circuit 240, for example, even when the response carrier level is lower.
- the level adjustment circuit 230A may include an optical filter at the output of the optical amplifier 234 to remove ASE light generated in the optical amplifier 234.
- FIG. 6 is a diagram showing an example of the configuration of an optical monitoring system 3 which is a second modified example of the second embodiment of the present invention.
- the optical monitoring system 3 differs from the optical monitoring system 1 shown in Fig. 2 in that it includes an optical switch 810.
- the optical switch 810 selects a downstream optical fiber that transmits the control light transmitted from the monitoring and control device 800 to the optical communication device, and an upstream optical fiber that transmits a response light to the control light.
- the optical switch 810 is connected to a plurality of optical communication devices, and each optical communication device and the optical switch 810 are connected by a fiber pair (Fiber Pair, FP).
- One fiber pair includes two optical fibers, one of which is used as a downstream optical fiber and the other as an upstream optical fiber. These fiber pairs are connected to the optical switch 810 as an FP group 820.
- the optical switch 810 selects the optical communication device to be controlled on a fiber pair basis.
- the control light transmitted by the monitoring and control device 800 is transmitted to the optical transmission device to be controlled via one optical fiber of the selected fiber pair.
- the optical transmission device that receives the control light transmits the response light to the optical receiver 200 via the other optical fiber of the selected fiber pair.
- the optical monitoring system 3 includes an optical switch 810, which allows it to transmit control light to each of a plurality of optical communication devices and receive response light from each of the optical communication devices.
- Third Embodiment 7 is a diagram showing an example of the configuration of an optical monitoring system 4 in a third embodiment of the present invention.
- the optical monitoring system 4 includes an optical receiver 300 and a monitoring control device 800.
- the optical receiver 300 includes an optical coupler (CPL) 310 instead of the optical switch 210. That is, the optical receiver 300 includes the optical coupler 310, an optical switch 220, a level adjustment circuit 230, and an opto-electrical conversion circuit 240.
- the configurations and functions of the optical switch 220, the level adjustment circuit 230, and the opto-electrical conversion circuit 240 are similar to those of the optical receiver 200.
- Optical coupler 310 is a 1x2 optical coupler with a branching ratio of 1:1. Response light is input to optical coupler 310 from outside optical receiver 300. Regardless of whether the input response light is a full-wave modulated signal or a single-wavelength modulated signal, optical coupler 310 outputs the signal to both paths 211 and 212 with a power according to the branching ratio of optical coupler 310.
- the level adjustment circuit 230 blocks the wavelength of the WDM light and transmits and amplifies only the wavelength of the response carrier. Therefore, even if the response light input from the optical coupler 310 is a full-wave modulated signal, the full-wave modulated WDM light is not output from the level adjustment circuit 230.
- the optical switch 220 inputs the light propagating through the path 211 to the photoelectric conversion circuit 240. If the input response light is a single-wavelength modulated signal, the optical switch 220 inputs the light output from the level adjustment circuit 230 to the photoelectric conversion circuit 240.
- the optical switch 220 may be controlled by the monitoring and control device 800.
- the optical monitoring system 4 and the optical receiver 300 having such a configuration can suppress an increase in the size of the optical receiver that receives the optical signals in which the response signals are multiplexed using different multiplexing methods. This is because the level adjustment circuit 230 adjusts the level of the input optical signal so that the second response signal can be demodulated in the photoelectric conversion circuit 240.
- the optical receiver 300 has only one optical switch. Therefore, compared to the optical receiver 200 having two optical switches, the configuration of the optical switch and its control circuit can be simplified. Note that the level adjustment circuit 230A provided in the optical receiver 201 may be used instead of the level adjustment circuit 230.
- the optical monitoring system 5 includes an optical receiver 400 and a monitoring control device 800.
- the optical receiver 400 includes an optical coupler 410, an optical switch 220, a level adjustment circuit 430, and an opto-electrical conversion circuit 240.
- the optical receiver 400 includes an optical coupler 410 instead of the optical coupler 310, and includes a level adjustment circuit 430 instead of the level adjustment circuit 230.
- the configurations and functions of the optical switch 220 and the opto-electrical conversion circuit 240 are similar to those of the optical receivers 200 and 300.
- the optical coupler 410 is a 1x2 optical coupler with unequal branching.
- the optical coupler 410 is an optical coupler with a branching ratio of 90%:10% (10 dB optical coupler), but the branching ratio is not limited to this.
- Response light is input to the optical coupler 410 from outside the optical receiver 400.
- the optical coupler 410 outputs the input response light to both paths 211 and 212, regardless of whether the input response light is a full-wave modulated signal or a single-wavelength modulated signal.
- the branch side of the optical coupler 410 is connected to path 211 on the side with a small branching ratio (i.e., the side with a large branching loss) and to path 212 on the side with a large branching ratio (i.e., the side with a small branching loss).
- the optical coupler 410 is a 10 dB optical coupler. Therefore, the transmission loss from the input side of optical coupler 410 to path 211 is approximately 10 dB, and the transmission loss from the input side of optical coupler 410 to path 212 is approximately 0.5 dB.
- the level adjustment circuit 430 includes an optical filter 231.
- the optical filter 231 transmits only light of the wavelength of the response carrier. Therefore, if the response light is a full-wave modulated signal, the full-wave modulated WDM light is blocked by the optical filter 231. Since the level adjustment circuit 430 does not include an optical amplifier, the response carrier output from the optical filter 231 is input to the optical switch 220 without being amplified.
- the operation of the optical switch 220 is the same as that of the optical receivers 200 and 300. That is, when the response light input to the optical receiver 400 is a full-wave modulated signal, the optical switch 220 inputs the light propagated through the path 211 to the photoelectric conversion circuit 240. When the response light is a single-wavelength modulated signal, the optical switch 220 inputs the response carrier propagated through the path 212 to the photoelectric conversion circuit 240.
- the optical switch 220 may be controlled by the monitoring and control device 800.
- the optical coupler 410 is an unequal branching optical coupler. Therefore, the power of the response light branched to the path 211 is different from the power of the response light branched to the path 212.
- the branching loss to the path 212 which has a large branching ratio, is about 9 dB smaller than the branching loss to the path 211. Therefore, the difference between the power of the response carrier input to the level adjustment circuit 430 and the power of the full-wave modulated signal when the full-wave modulated signal propagates through the path 211 is about 9 dB smaller than the configuration using the optical switch 210 exemplified in the second embodiment, etc.
- the optical receiver 400 can reduce the difference between the power of the full-wave modulated signal input to the photoelectric conversion circuit 240 and the power of the response carrier by using the optical coupler 410.
- the photoelectric conversion circuit 240 which has a dynamic range for receiving the full-wave modulated signal, can be used to demodulate the response signal from not only the full-wave modulated signal but also the response carrier.
- the branching ratio of the optical coupler 410 is set so that the photoelectric conversion circuit 240 can demodulate the response signal regardless of whether the response light is a full-wave modulated signal or a single-wavelength modulated signal.
- the optical receiver 400 like the optical receiver 300, requires only one optical switch. Therefore, the control circuit can be simplified compared to the optical receiver 200. Furthermore, the optical receiver 400 can reduce the difference between the power of the response carrier of the single-wavelength modulated signal input to the photoelectric conversion circuit 240 and the power of the full-wave modulated signal by using the optical coupler 410, which is an unequal branch optical coupler. Therefore, the optical receiver 400 can demodulate the response signal without providing an optical amplifier in the level adjustment circuit 430.
- the optical coupler 410 distributes a response light of a higher level to the path 212 than to the path 211. In other words, the optical coupler 410 performs the function of the level adjustment circuit 130 described in FIG. 1.
- the optical monitoring system 5 and the optical receiver 400 having such a configuration can suppress an increase in the size of the optical receiver in the optical receiver that receives each optical signal in which the response signal is multiplexed by different multiplexing methods.
- the optical monitoring system 6 includes an optical receiver 500 and a monitoring control device 800.
- the optical receiver 500 includes a WDM filter 510, an optical switch 220, a level adjustment circuit 530, and an opto-electrical conversion circuit 240.
- the optical receiver 500 includes a WDM filter 510 instead of the optical switch 210, and a level adjustment circuit 530 instead of the level adjustment circuit 230.
- the configurations and functions of the optical switch 220 and the opto-electrical conversion circuit 240 are similar to those of the optical receiver 200.
- the WDM filter 510 is an optical demultiplexer that separates the input response light by wavelength.
- the WDM filter 510 may be configured with a dielectric multilayer filter or a wavelength selective switch (WSS).
- Response light is input to the WDM filter 510 from outside the optical receiver 500.
- the WDM filter 510 outputs light in the wavelength band of the WDM light to path 211, and outputs light in the wavelength band of the response carrier to path 212. That is, the optical path from the input of the WDM filter 510 to path 211 functions as an optical bandpass filter that transmits only the wavelength of the WDM light.
- the optical path from the input of the WDM filter 510 to path 212 functions as an optical bandpass filter that transmits only the wavelength of the response carrier of the single wavelength modulated signal.
- the level adjustment circuit 530 includes an optical amplifier 233 and an optical filter 232.
- the optical amplifier 233 amplifies the response carrier separated by the WDM filter 510.
- the gain of the optical amplifier 233 is set so that the photoelectric conversion circuit 240 can demodulate the response signal from the response carrier.
- the optical filter 232 removes the ASE generated in the optical amplifier 233. If the power of the ASE light is low enough that it does not affect the quality of the response signal, the optical filter 232 may be omitted.
- the optical monitoring system 6 and optical receiver 500 having such a configuration can suppress an increase in the size of the optical receiver, which receives each optical signal in which a response signal is multiplexed using a different multiplexing method. Also, like the optical receivers 300 and 400, the optical receiver 500 requires only one optical switch. This allows for a simpler control circuit than the optical receiver 200. Furthermore, since the WDM filter 510 includes the function of a narrowband filter for the path 212, a narrowband filter is not required in the level adjustment circuit 530, and the configuration of the level adjustment circuit 530 can be simplified.
- a first optical connection means for outputting a first response light, the first response light being a light having an optical level in a first range, the first response light being a light obtained by intensity-modulating WDM light and multiplexing a first response signal, to a first path, and for outputting a second response light, the second response light being a light having an optical level in a second range not overlapping with the first range, the second response light being a light obtained by intensity-modulating an optical carrier having a wavelength different from that of the WDM light, to a second path; a photoelectric conversion means for converting input light into a response signal and outputting the response signal at a light receiving level within the first range and not within the second range; a level adjusting means provided in the second path for adjusting an optical level of light including the second response signal so that the second response signal can be output from the photoelectric conversion means; a second optical connection means for inputting either the first response light output from the first path or the light output from the second path to the photoelectric conversion means;
