Patent number: 10491308Abstract: An optical signal processing method and a coherent receiver, wherein an in-phase signal XI in a first polarization direction and an in-phase signal YI in a second polarization direction are added up to obtain a signal I; a quadrature signal XQ in the first polarization direction and a quadrature signal YQ in the second polarization direction are added up to obtain a signal Q; and quantization, combination, and digital signal processing are performed on the I and the Q. After summation, two signals need to be quantized. Therefore, a quantity of ADCs is reduced by half. In addition, because power consumption of a summation component is less than that of an ADS, power consumption of optical signal processing can be reduced. In addition, because there is a preset value, the summation may be performed after phase-inversion is performed on one analog signal, thereby avoiding a signal loss caused by the summation.Type: GrantFiled: February 27, 2018Date of Patent: November 26, 2019Assignee: Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.Inventors: Enbo Zhou, Yuanjun Liang, Tianjian Zuo, Liang Zhang

Patent number: 10135525Abstract: The present invention provides a fiber-cut detection method, apparatus, and system. When a fiber cut occurs, power of input signal light decreases quickly at a fiber-cut location. When the fiber-cut location is relatively far away from an amplifier, pump light consumption of the input signal light in the remaining fiber reduces due to reduction of the input signal light, which causes an increase of remaining pump optical power in the fiber and an increase of an actual gain value of the amplifier. A gain-locking function of the amplifier works, which decreases pump power of the pump light and maintains a gain of the amplifier unchanged basically. Output optical power of the amplifier decreases quickly with decrease of input optical power, and when power of an output optical signal decreases to power that is lower than preset power of the output optical signal, it is determined that a fiber cut occurs.Type: GrantFiled: June 29, 2016Date of Patent: November 20, 2018Assignee: HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD.Inventors: Yansui Huang, Enbo Zhou
