切断箇所を知ることが可能となっていた。Conventionally, this type of CATVI 't'a' equipment connects its own repeater to a repeater located directly below it in a transmission line configured by cascading and branching repeaters on a main transmission line. It has the function of detecting disconnection of the main line and transmitting this judgment result to the central monitoring station via the upstream transmission path by the function of the data processing unit built into the repeater. It was possible to know where the transmission line and one branch transmission line were cut.

検出することができないという欠点がおる。The above-mentioned nine conventional CATV repeaters detect only a disconnection of the main transmission line between the repeaters immediately below it and a disconnection of one branch transmission line when each repeater is connected in cascade or branch connection. Therefore, there is a drawback that disconnection of multiple branch transmission lines cannot be detected.

線伝送路1介して中枢監視局1に送信される。Next, the operation of the CATV repeater with the above configuration will be explained. A central monitoring station 1 monitors repeaters 2 and 3 cascaded via a main transmission line 4 and repeaters 5 and 6 via a branch transmission line T. Then, the amplitude-modulated pilot signal sent in the downstream direction from the central monitoring station 1 is sent to the downstream repeater 3 through the amplifier IQa, coupler 8f, and main transmission line 4, and then sent to the distributor 16.
One-way coupler 9 - sent to repeater 6 via branch transmission line 7, and coupler 8a - bandpass filter 10a°
- sent to the detector 11; Therefore, this detector 1
1 detects a modulated signal from an input pilot signal and outputs it. This modulated signal is always sent out in the upper nine directions through the coupler 8c and the coupler 8b. Then, the modulation signal sent back from the repeater 3 in the upward direction is sent to the coupler 8f.
- Input to the switching section 13 via the amplifier 10b. on the other hand,
Modulated signals sent in the upstream direction from repeaters 5 and 6 are input to switching unit 13 via directional couplers 9a and 9b, respectively. Therefore, the switching section 13 always selects one input in sequence according to the input of the switching control signal 15a outputted from the data processing section 15, and modulates the signal via the bandpass filter 10b' for selecting the modulation signal. The signal is output to the signal detection section 14. Therefore, the modulation signal δ detection unit 14 detects the modulation signal, and the determination result is electronically encoded in the data processing unit 15 and sent to the central monitoring station 1 via the coupler 8b, coupler a, and trunk transmission line 1. Sent.

る。In such a transmission state, if the branch transmission line 7 is disconnected, no modulated signal is input to the repeater 2 via this branch transmission line T. Therefore, the data processing unit 15 detects that this modulated signal is not input, creates a message indicating that the branch transmission line T is disconnected, and sends it in the upstream direction. Therefore, the central monitoring station 1 can know the failure status by receiving this message and analyzing the contents.

る。Further, the CATV service signal sent in the upstream direction through all of the branch destination repeaters 5 and 6 passes through the coupler 8e and the amplifier 10c, and the modulation component is removed by the wave remover j2b, and then the signal is sent to the coupler 8e and the repeater 6. Input 8dK. Further, signals sent in the upstream direction via the branch transmission line T and the main transmission line 4 are sent to the upper level via the coupler 8d, coupler 80a, and coupler 8b.

とにより、復数の分岐伝送路の切断を中枢監視局で検出
することができる。As mentioned above, the central monitoring station captures the amplitude-modulated pilot signal sent in the downstream direction and sends it to the branch transmission line, and the repeater directly below the branch transmission line transmits the amplitude-modulated pilot signal in the upstream direction in response to this pilot signal. By providing each repeater with a function of sequentially detecting the presence or absence of the transmitted modulated signal for each branch transmission line, the central monitoring station can detect the disconnection of multiple branch transmission lines.
