Abstract: An optical relay system is provided, which includes a first optical signal distribution device (101), a phase detection device (103), an amplitude regeneration device (102), and a phase regeneration and load device (104). An optical relay method is further provided, which includes the following steps. A received input signal is divided into two paths; phase information of one path of the input signal is extracted, and is converted to an amplitude modulated signal; an amplitude of the other path of the input signal is restored, so as to generate an amplitude regenerated signal; a phase is loaded on the amplitude regenerated signal by using the amplitude modulated signal, so as to generate a phase regenerated signal. The system and method eliminate a phase noise of the signal in a transmission process, improve a transmission performance of the signal, and realize a simple implementation method.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a method for detecting dispersion, overcoming disadvantages of complex configuration and insensitivity to a tiny dispersion of the method and device for detecting dispersion in the prior art. The inventive method includes: obtaining a signal within a predetermined bandwidth range from an optical signal received; obtaining an operated value of power via an operation on the signal within the predetermined bandwidth range; and obtaining amount of system dispersion according to a corresponding relation between the operated value of power and the amount of system dispersion. A device for detecting dispersion is disclosed, including a photoelectric filter operational unit and a processing unit, where an output of the photoelectric filter operational unit is connected to an input of the processing unit. The device for detecting dispersion of the present invention is applicable to an adaptive dispersion compensation system. An optical signal transmission system is further disclosed.

Abstract: A portable information terminal performs current position detection by detecting the current position of a user based on position information received from an artificial satellite and position information received from a base station; A position information URL indicative of the current position detected by the current position detection is acquired from a host computer; A processing of writing and editing mail is carried out; and the position information URL is inserted into the mail text being edited as position information, A plurality of tasks can be processed simultaneously; for example, the processing of the current position detection and the processing of the URL acquisition each consist of two or more tasks, and mail is written and edited in response to the operation of a user during the processing of these tasks.
