  • Publication number: 20260005782
    Abstract: A method includes collecting values for a plurality of optical parameters from a first reconfigurable optical add/drop multiplexer and a second reconfigurable optical add/drop multiplexer connected by an optical link of an optical network, wherein the first reconfigurable optical add/drop multiplexer and the second reconfigurable optical add/drop multiplexer are provided by different vendors, comparing the values to previously collected values for the plurality of optical parameters, determining, based on the comparing, that a change has been detected in a power value of at least one channel of at least one of: the first reconfigurable optical add/drop multiplexer or the second reconfigurable optical add/drop multiplexer, and sending an instruction to at least one of: the first reconfigurable optical add/drop multiplexer or the second reconfigurable optical add/drop multiplexer to adjust a transmit power of the at least one of: the first reconfigurable optical add/drop multiplexer or the second reconfigurable

  • Patent number: 10826602
    Abstract: Concepts and technologies for multi-lane optical transport network recovery are provided herein. In an embodiment, a system includes a multi-lane optical transceiver. The multi-lane optical transceiver can include a transmitter optical sub-assembly, a receiver optical sub-assembly, and a controller that includes a processor and a memory that stores computer-executable instructions that, in response to execution by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations. The operations can include detecting an optical interruption event corresponding to an optical lane within a multi-lane optical path. The operations can further include instantiating an optical protocol alarm based on the optical interruption event. The operations can further include generating an optical protocol message based on the optical protocol alarm. The operations can further include instructing a peer multi-lane optical transceiver to alter optical transmission along the multi-lane optical path based on the optical protocol message.
