Patent number: 11973531Abstract: The present invention enables shortening the time required for resuming communication in a protection method that uses a backup path in an optical communication system that includes a master station device and multiple slave station devices. The slave station devices are connected to a loop path in parallel. The communication paths between the master station device and the slave station devices include a normal path and a backup path. The master station device executes communication control processing with respect to the slave station devices based on the RTTs. A first slave station device is a slave station device that cannot perform communication via the normal path. If the first slave station device is detected, the master station device calculates a first backup path for the first slave station device based on a first RTT between the master station device and the loop path, a loop RTT required for one full lap on the loop path, and the first normal path RTT for the first slave station device.Type: GrantFiled: April 9, 2020Date of Patent: April 30, 2024Assignee: NIPPON TELEGRAPH AND TELEPHONE CORPORATIONInventors: Rintaro Harada, Hirotaka Ujikawa, Shin Kaneko, Jun Terada
