  • Publication number: 20240259285
    Abstract: Delay measurement can be performed by a dedicated circuit without use of software. A delay measurement device includes a general-purpose processor, and a delay measurement circuit that operates according to a pre-installed circuit without use of a program. An opposing terminal communicates with the delay measurement device. The delay measurement circuit includes a measurement packet generation unit, a response packet reception unit, and a delay time calculation unit that are pre-installed. The measurement packet generation unit generates a measurement packet, transmits the measurement packet to the opposing terminal, and stores the transmission time of the measurement packet. The response packet reception unit receives a response packet from the opposing terminal. The delay time calculation unit calculates a reciprocation delay time by subtracting the transmission time from the reception time. The opposing terminal transmits the response packet when receiving the measurement packet.

  • Publication number: 20240223295
    Abstract: An optical communication device connected to an optical path in an optical communication network includes a controller. The controller generates an additional information signal having a carrier frequency different from a carrier frequency of a main optical signal. The controller generates an output optical signal by superimposing the additional information signal on the main optical signal, and outputs the output optical signal to the optical path. The additional information signal includes a time stamp reflecting a timing at which the additional information signal is generated.
