Definitions
- the invention relates to an optical unidirectional ring ⁇ network according to the preamble of claim 1.
- Ring networks are known for the transmission of large amounts of data, in which data are transmitted unidirectionally or — usually via two fibers — bidirectionally between different network nodes / terminals.
- the branching and insertion of data should take place on the optical level and it should be possible to reconfigure easily.
- the ring network including the network nodes should also be implemented as cost-effectively as possible.
- Such a ring network is specified in claim 1.
- a unidirectional ring network is particularly cost-effective since only one fiber is required for transmission and that Network nodes can be easily formed.
- the fixed assignment of a specific transmission channel or a wavelength, which is used only once in the ring network, to a network node provides a clear assignment of transmission channels and thus the transmitted data signals to the network nodes. Since each network node receives the data signals from all other network nodes, it is possible to establish any connection to other network nodes by selecting an appropriate reception filter. If a switchable or tunable receive filter is selected, any connection between all network nodes can be made. Multiple filters also enable simultaneous connection to multiple network nodes.
- a second ring can be provided for equivalent circuits, in which the data transmission takes place in the opposite direction.
- FIG. 1 shows a unidirectional ring network
- FIG. 2 shows a first exemplary embodiment of a network node
- FIG. 3 shows a preferred exemplary embodiment of this network node
- Figure 4 shows a unidirectional ring network with a replacement transmission ring.
- FIG. 1 shows a unidirectional ring network with a plurality of network nodes NA, NB, NC, ..., NN.
- the transmission between any network node takes place in wavelength multiplex operation over an optical fiber 1 in several transmission channels.
- channel ⁇ A to ⁇ N which have a predetermined wavelength distance from each other.
- the direction of transmission is indicated by arrows.
- the network node NA is shown in FIG. 2 as a basic circuit diagram.
- Network nodes are used to implement different connections, which are always made via transmission channels.
- Data signals to be decoupled in the network node are referred to as “drops” to be branched off, and the data signals to be sent out as “to be inserted” (add).
- add There is also talk of branching off, switching through or inserting channels, in the narrower sense meaning the signals transmitted in these channels.
- Reference symbols with the same indices are used for the transmission channels and the associated data signals.
- a data signal ⁇ A is transmitted in the associated transmission channel ⁇ B.
- the network node which is reduced to the essential functions of an add-drop module, contains the series connection of an amplifier 4, a decoupling device 5 and a coupling device 6.
- At input 2 there is a wavelength multiplex signal of all data signals ⁇ A received via transmission channels ⁇ A - ⁇ N - ⁇ N on.
- a single signal can be transmitted in each transmission channel (transmission band) or several individual signals in wavelength division multiplex operation or of course also in time division multiplex operation.
- the received signals are initially amplified and then arrive at the decoupling device 5.
- a 1: 2 coupler (branching device)
- All data signals / transmission channels are first divided into two signal paths. All transmission signals / transmission channels to be switched are switched through via a signal path except for the transmission channel ⁇ A assigned to this network node;
- the transmission channel ⁇ be diverted dr0p will lected by here as a wavelength switch decoupling se ⁇ .
- the wavelength crossover is shown schematically here as a coupler 51 with a fixed, switchable or tunable bandpass filter 52 and a bandstop filter 53.
- the channel ⁇ D R0P is the only one in the passband of the bandpass filter 52. It is routed, for example, participants device via a drop-output 7 to a part ⁇ .
- a corresponding data signal ⁇ A , ADD present at the add input 8 is inserted into the assigned transmission channel in the coupling device 6 designed as a coupler.
- the bandstop 53 located in the first signal path is provided, which is tuned to the corresponding wavelength.
- the transmission of this signal can also be interrupted in the previous network node MN, but this is associated with additional configuration effort if additional network nodes are added.
- a wavelength multiplex signal is output, which contains the signals of all transmission channels ⁇ A / A D D and ⁇ B to ⁇ N.
- each network node can receive the corresponding transmit signal of every other network node, i. H. a corresponding connection can be established. This makes it easy to change the configuration.
- FIG. 3 shows a particularly advantageous variant of a network node. It is a tunable band pass 54 is provided, and as a coupling device 61, 62 a provided with a grating 62 coupler 61.
- the ker of the Verstär ⁇ 4 coming wavelength division multiplexed signal includes the data signal ⁇ A, which has already passed through the entire ring network (loop return signal). This is reflected by the grating 62, which acts as a bandstop, and destroyed in an optical sump 63 (a suitable termination of an optical fiber).
- the first opposite to the transmission ⁇ direction of the ring network in the coupler injected signal ⁇ A, ADD is also reflected by the grating, thereby further sent in the direction of transmission.
- Different structures are known for the coupling 61 provided with the grating. Either the grating is arranged in the coupling area (FIG. 3) or two coupling areas are realized between which separate grating are provided for each fiber.
- connections with several channels between the individual network nodes can also be realized.
- the add-drop modules shown in FIGS. 2 and 3 can be connected in series or adapted accordingly.
- the use of wider filters also enables several adjacent channels to be coupled in and out.
- FIG. 4 shows an expanded ring network in which the optical fiber 1 has been supplemented by an optical fiber 1P provided for protection purposes.
- the data signals - only the protection data signal ⁇ AP is shown - are first transmitted via the undisturbed part of the ring network and then fed into the protection optical fiber 1P in the opposite direction, so that all network nodes receive the data signal.
- the transmission path is selected by means of changeover switches provided in the network nodes.
