  • Publication number: 20040096226
    Abstract: A method and a device for receiving a broadband light pulse modified in the time and frequency domains, the light pulse comprising at least one frequency component. The method comprises receiving the light pulse at a particular moment, separating the frequency components of the light pulse from each other, converting each frequency component into an electrical pulse, performing a first comparison to compare the magnitude of each electrical pulse to a predetermined threshold value, performing a second comparison to compare said electrical pulses exceeding the threshold value at a particular moment, and deciding the bit value in response to the second comparison conducted.

  • Patent number: 5678178
    Abstract: A microcellular radio network including a plurality of base transceiver stations and higher-level network elements, such as base station controllers and exchanges, and an SDH transmission network. The base transceiver stations and higher-level network elements are connected to nodes of the SDH network for dynamic establishment of digital transmission links. The network management of the SDH network is capable of dynamic allocation of transmission capacity of the transmission network to base transceiver stations or higher-level network elements according to their traffic load. The traffic load is determined on the basis of the number of transmission channels in use and those not in use, or on the basis of load information obtained from the network management of the radio network.
