  • Patent number: 8289871
    Abstract: A propagation delay time measuring system 100 includes a propagation delay time measuring apparatus 110 and a reply apparatus 120. The propagation delay time measuring apparatus 110 continuously transmits plural measuring packets a. A clock time of transmission is stored in the measuring packet a. The reply apparatus 120 sends back the measuring packets a, transmitted from the propagation delay time measuring apparatus 110, to the propagation delay time measuring apparatus 110. In the propagation delay time measuring system 100, the propagation delay time measuring apparatus 110 receives the measuring packets a sent back from the reply apparatus 120, and the propagation delay time measuring apparatus 110 measures a propagation delay time between the propagation delay time measuring apparatus 110 and the reply apparatus 120 using at least one of the received measuring packets a.

  • Patent number: 5673133
    Abstract: The invention has the object of offering a phase synchronization system for wavelength division multiplexed bi-directional communications systems which can perform high-precision phase synchronization between a master device and a slave device without being affected by chromatic dispersion within the optical transmission medium. FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the structure of an embodiment of the phase synchronization system of the invention. The phase synchronization system switches between phase difference measurement between optical signals of two different wavelengths which propagate in opposite directions and phase difference measurement between optical signals of the two different wavelengths which propagate in the same direction. By comparing the data indicating the phase difference, the system determines the delay time between the master device and the slave device.
