Definitions
- the present invention relates to an optical transceiver control circuit, an optical network system, and an optical transceiver output control method, and more particularly to an optical transceiver control circuit, an optical network system, and an optical transceiver output control method used in a backbone optical network.
- An optical transceiver is a circuit module incorporated in an optical transponder, and performs electrical communication in both directions using an optical fiber by converting an electrical signal into an electrical signal. An information transmission / reception operation using the optical transceiver will be described with reference to FIG.
- FIG. 4 is a block diagram of a related line card.
- the line card is disposed between the line (network) and the client, and includes an interface for information input / output.
- the line card includes a framer 100 and an optical transceiver 110.
- the framer 100 When transmitting information from the client side to the line side, the framer 100 multiplexes the electric signal 121 input from the client side for transmission on the line side to construct a frame. Thereafter, the framer 100 converts it into a transmission format (for example, SFI: Serdes Framer Interface) between the framer 100 and the optical transceiver 110, and outputs an electrical signal 122 to the optical transceiver 110.
- a transmission format for example, SFI: Serdes Framer Interface
- the electrical signal 121 from the client side is subjected to, for example, multiplexing of the optical channel defined by the Synchronous Transport Module (STM) in the Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SDH) standard, and is determined by the Optical channel Transport Unit (Opportunity Transport Unit).
- STM Synchronous Transport Module
- SDH Synchronous Digital Hierarchy
- Opportunity Transport Unit A signal having an optical channel transmission rate or the like.
- the electrical signal 121 may be a signal compliant with other standards such as Gigabit Ether.
- the optical transceiver 110 converts the input electrical signal 122 into an optical signal in a line-side transmission format, and outputs a main signal 123 optically modulated according to the format to the line side.
- the optical transceiver 110 receives the main signal 124 that is an optical signal from the line side, converts it into an electrical signal, and outputs the electrical signal 125 to the framer 100.
- the framer 100 performs signal processing such as frame conversion on the input electric signal 125, and then outputs an electric signal 126 including information on the main signal 124 to the client side.
- the optical transceiver 110 cannot receive the main signal 124 and cannot normally generate the electric signal 125 output to the framer 100.
- the electric signal 126 output to the client side is intermittently or completely stopped.
- Patent Document 1 discloses an optical transmission device that transmits an AIS (Alarm Indication Signal) signal indicating the occurrence of a failure when a frequency jump of an input signal occurs due to communication interruption on the line side.
- the optical transmission device of Patent Literature 1 includes an optical transmission / reception unit including a detection unit that detects a communication interruption on the line side, and an electric signal processing unit.
- the optical transmission device includes a network-side transmission PLL (Phase Locked Loop) unit including a voltage-controlled oscillation unit, a clock switching control unit, a selector, and a frequency dividing unit.
- PLL Phase Locked Loop
- the detection unit of the optical transmission / reception unit detects this, and the clock switching control unit controls the selector accordingly and processes the connection destination in the electrical signal processing.
- the output side of the transmission PLL unit on the network side Specifically, the output of the voltage controlled oscillation unit of the transmission PLL unit on the network side is switched to a clock divided by four. Then, the frequency is divided by 255 in the frequency divider arranged in the subsequent stage of the selector. Thereby, the phase fluctuation amount before and after switching is compressed to 1/255. Therefore, the electric signal processing unit using the frequency in which the frequency jump which is the phase change amount is suppressed can transmit a stable AIS signal.
- the optical transmission device described in Patent Document 1 can stably transmit an AIS signal when a communication interruption occurs on the line side. However, if the main signal is no longer input to the optical transceiver, the frequency and mark rate (ratio of marks included in the predetermined time) of the above-described electric signal cannot be determined.
- the optical transceiver 110 takes time to start the conduction of the main signal 124. Therefore, the electric signal 126 output from the framer 100 becomes unstable.
- FEC forward error correction
- FIG. 5A is a timing chart in a case where the non-conduction time of the main signal 124 input from the line side is short, and the lock-data-recovery (CDR) is not unlocked.
- FIG. 5B is a timing chart when the non-conduction time of the main signal 124 input from the line side is long and the CDR is unlocked.

Yes.
- the framer 100 is composed of an FEC decoder, and a CDR 105 is mounted at an input end to which an electric signal 125 is input.
- the CDR 105 extracts a reference clock from information of the main signal 124 included in the input electrical signal 125 and performs signal processing in the framer 100.
- the optical transceiver 110 when the main signal 124 is no longer input from the line side (non-conducting 130), the optical transceiver 110 performs reception stop processing. Accordingly, the electrical signal 125 including the information of the main signal 124 is not output from the optical transceiver 110 (area 131). If the time during which the main signal 124 is non-conducting 130 is short, no unlock occurs in the CDR 105 (OK). In addition, since the electrical signal 125 including the information of the main signal 124 is not output from the optical transceiver 110, the framer 100 does not generate the electrical signal 126 (shaded line).
- the optical transceiver 110 starts the reception start process. Accordingly, the electric signal 125 intermittently repeats conduction (blank) and non-conduction (hatching).
- the electrical signal 126 is intermittently generated (blank) or not generated (hatched) (time lag 132).
- the optical transceiver 110 when the main signal 124 is not input from the line side (non-conducting 135), the optical transceiver 110 performs a reception stop process. As a result, the electrical signal 125 including the information of the main signal 124 is not output from the optical transceiver 110 (region 136).
- the non-conducting state 135 becomes longer, the reference clock cannot be extracted from the information of the main signal 124, and the CDR 105 is unlocked (region 137). That is, Loss-Of-Lock occurs.
- the framer 100 since the electrical signal 125 including the information of the main signal 124 is not output from the optical transceiver 110, the framer 100 does not generate the electrical signal 126 (non-generated 138).
- the optical transceiver 110 starts the reception start process. Accordingly, the electric signal 125 intermittently repeats conduction (blank) and non-conduction (hatching).
- the CDR 105 Since the CDR 105 is out of lock, the CDR 105 extracts the reference clock from the information of the main signal 124 on the line side, and redraws the signal processing in the CDR 105 to the clock.
- the framer 100 restarts the generation of the electric signal 126 after the electric signal 125 including the information of the main signal 124 is output from the optical transceiver 110 (waiting period 139), and the lock release in the CDR 105 is eliminated. After that, the output of the electric signal 126 is resumed (generation on the right side). That is, the waiting period 139 coincides with the signal processing re-intake time in the CDR 105.
- the switching time to the standby optical fiber when communication is interrupted is defined as a setting parameter called “switch time” within 50 ms.
- the framer 100 cannot generate the electrical signal 126 not only when communication disconnection occurs on the line side, but also when loss of the main signal 124, loss of frame, loss of frame synchronization, etc. occur.
