  • Publication number: 20230393021
    Abstract: Monitoring device monitors an optical transmission line by using electric field information signal indicating an electric field of received optical signal. The monitoring device includes a processor. The processor sequentially compensates for first chromatic dispersion among chromatic dispersion of the optical fiber transmission line, nonlinear distortion of the optical fiber transmission line, and remaining chromatic dispersion among the chromatic dispersion in the electric field information signal to generate a reference signal indicating the electric field of the optical signal in the transmitter node. The processor detects, in the electric field information signal, second distortion different from the nonlinear distortion. The processor processes the reference signal based on the second distortion to generate a second reference signal.

  • Publication number: 20230396332
    Abstract: A characteristics estimation device estimates characteristics of an optical fiber transmission line in an optical transmission system in which an optical signal is transmitted from first node to second node via the optical fiber transmission line. The characteristics estimation device includes a processor. The processor generates, based on electric field information indicating an electric field of the optical signal received by the second node via the optical fiber transmission line, a power profile indicating a relationship between power of the optical signal and dispersion amount corresponding to a transmission distance from the first node or the second node. The processor detects a span forming the optical fiber transmission line by using the power profile. The processor calculates, for the detected span, a dispersion coefficient of the optical fiber transmission line by dividing the dispersion amount estimated based on the power profile by a corresponding span length.

  • Publication number: 20230333661
    Abstract: An arithmetic apparatus displays a 3D work-target object in a 3D coordinate space on a display device, and receives a motion signal that is a signal representing a motion measured by any one of sensor units. When receiving the motion signal, the arithmetic apparatus identifies the measured motion based on the motion signal. When the identified motion is a motion regarding a spatial shift that is a shift of a viewpoint in the 3D coordinate space of a user, the arithmetic apparatus shifts the viewpoint in the 3D coordinate space of the user in accordance with the identified motion. When the identified motion is a hand motion regarding a work movement with respect to a work target, the arithmetic apparatus outputs output information including information representing the work movement in accordance with the identified motion.

  • Publication number: 20230156444
    Abstract: A mobile communication terminal A performs near field communication with another mobile communication terminal B by a near field communication unit and obtains a communication distance with another mobile communication terminal B. An information acquisition unit acquires information on another mobile communication terminal B, information on the mobile communication terminal A, or both of the information when the communication distance to the other mobile communication terminal B is equal to or more than a threshold. An abnormality determination unit determines an abnormal state of the mobile communication terminal A based on information (position information, wearing information, or the like) acquired by the information acquisition unit. When the abnormality determination unit determines that the mobile communication terminal A is in the abnormal state, a lock unit locks the mobile communication terminal A, the other mobile communication terminal or both of those mobile communication terminals.
