すなわち、パラレル信号送信部1138は、復元された100Gトランスポートフレーム(OTU4:112G)を、DSPとOTU4フレーマ間のOTL4.10インタフェースによりOTU4フレーマ(フレーミング処理部1012)へパラレルに送る。OTU4フレーマのパラレル信号受信部1125は、100Gトランスポートフレーム(OTU4:112G)を復元する。オーバーヘッド抽出部1126は、復元された100Gトランスポートフレーム(OTU4:112G)に誤り監視等のオーバーヘッドに関する処理を行う。ダミー信号抜去部1127は、オーバーヘッドに関する処理が行われた100Gトランスポートフレーム(OTU4:112G)のペイロード内の決められた位置に含まれる50G分のTS(例えば、TS6~TS10)からダミー信号を抜去する。デマッピング部1128は、ダミー信号が抜去された100Gトランスポートフレーム(OTU4:112G)からクライアント信号を抽出する。なお、ダミー信号を抜去せずに、デマッピング部1128が、100Gトランスポートフレーム(OTU4:112G)から直接クライアント信号を復元してもよい。デマッピング部1128は、抽出された10GE×5のクライアント信号を、クライアント信号送受信部1011へ送る。クライアント信号送受信部1011は、フレーマ(フレーミング処理部1012)から受信したクライアント信号を出力する。
第6の実施形態と第4の実施形態との差分は、2フレーム目のOTU4のOHの転送方法である。本実施形態では、トランスポンダ間で転送するトランスポートフレームのペイロード内のTS(データ設定領域)によって2フレーム目のOTU4のOHの一部を転送する。以下では、第4の実施形態との差分を中心に説明する。
上記のように100Gトランスポートフレームを設定することで、100GのOTL4.10インタフェースで転送可能な100Gトランスポートフレーム(OTU4)の形式を取りながら、40G分のデータを送信するフレームを生成することができる。

4列×8カラムのOH’のデータをTSで転送した場合、受信側レート変換部1137は、50Gトランスポートフレーム(56G)のTSからOH’のデータを読み出し、2フレーム目のOTU4に設定すべきOHを復元する。受信側レート変換部1137は、2フレーム目の100Gトランスポートフレームに、復元したOTU4のOHのデータを挿入する。受信側レート変換部1137は、50Gトランスポートフレーム(56G)のTSから得られる情報では不足するOHのデータについては、1フレーム目のOTU4のOHの該当するデータをそのままコピーしてもよいし、他のデータを挿入してもよい。
なお、4列×16カラムのOH’のデータをTSで転送した場合、受信側レート変換部1137は、2フレーム目のOTU4のOHは、50GトランスポートフレームのTSから復元されたOTU4のOH’のデータを挿入する。
上記のように100Gトランスポートフレームを構成することで、1つの50Gトランスポートフレームから2つの100Gトランスポートフレーム(OTU4)を復元する。
第7の実施形態と第4の実施形態との差分は、2フレーム目のOTU4のOHの転送方法となる。本実施形態では、トランスポンダ間で転送するトランスポートフレームのペイロード内のGMPのstuffに代えて2フレーム目のOTU4のOHの一部を転送する。以下では、第4の実施形態との差分を中心に説明する。

受信側レート変換部1137aは、誤り訂正復号化部1136により誤り訂正符号化されたトランスポートフレームから、フレーミング処理部1012へ転送可能なトランスポートフレームを構成し、構成されたトランスポートフレームをパラレル信号送信部1138に出力する。このとき、受信側レート変換部1137aは、2フレーム目のトランスポートフレームに、送信側のトランスポンダ1001aからOSC等のアウトバンドにより受信したOHを設定する。
すなわち、トランスポンダ1001aのクライアント信号送受信部1011は、クライアント信号をフレーミング処理部1012に送信する。フレーミング処理部1012のマッピング部1121は、OTU4フレーマ-DSP間のインタフェース(OTL4.10)がOTU4対応の112Gであるため、クライアント信号をOTU4相当のトランスポートフレームにマッピングする。
送信側レート変換部1132aは、生成した50Gトランスポートフレームを誤り訂正符号化部1133に出力する。誤り訂正符号化部1133は、50Gトランスポートフレームに誤り訂正符号を付加し、誤り訂正符号が付加された50Gトランスポートフレームをデジタル信号送信処理部1134に送信する。なお、誤り訂正符号化部1133は無くてもよい。

第9の実施形態では、送信側のトランスポンダにおいてトランスポンダ間で転送するトランスポートフレームを作成するときに利用しなかった2フレーム目のOTU4のOHを、第4の実施形態から第8の実施形態までの方法を一つ以上組み合わせて受信側のトランスポンダへ送信する。なお、2フレーム目のOTU4のOHは、一部転送でもよく、全て転送してもよい。
第10の実施形態では、フレームレート変換を、固定のフレームレートによる転送と組み合わせて利用する。本実施形態では、ライン側のビットレートが150G系列の際に、フレームレート変換によって作成した50Gトランスポートフレームと、レート固定の100Gトランスポートフレームを組み合わせて転送する例を示す。
また、デジタル信号処理部1013bは、50Gトランスポートフレーム(56G)については、上述した第4~第9の実施形態と同様に、ペイロードにダミー信号を挿入することによって100Gトランスポートフレーム(112G)を構成する。受信側のトランスポンダ1001bのフレーマにおいて、フレーミング処理部1012bは、トランスポートフレームからダミー信号を抜去して52Gのクライアント信号を復元し、復元されたクライアント信号を出力する。
送信信号処理部1017は、パラレル信号受信部1171、誤り訂正符号化部1173、パラレル信号受信部1131、送信側レート変換部1132、誤り訂正符号化部1133、信号合流部1174、デジタル信号送信処理部1134を備えて構成される。パラレル信号受信部1171は、フレーマ-DSP間インタフェースにより固定レートフレーミング処理部1015から送られてきた信号からトランスポートフレームを復元し、復元したトランスポートフレームを誤り訂正符号化部1173に出力する。誤り訂正符号化部1173は、パラレル信号受信部1171が復元したトランスポートフレームに誤り訂正符号を付加し、誤り訂正符号が付加されたトランスポートフレームを信号合流部1174に出力する。信号合流部1174は、誤り訂正符号化部1133から出力された50Gトランスポートフレームと、誤り訂正符号化部1173から出力された100Gトランスポートフレームとを合流する。
オーバーヘッド付加部1123は、ダミー信号挿入部1122からOTU4に対応したトランスポートフレームにより出力されたデータにOHを付加して、OHが付加されたデータをパラレル信号送信部1124に送る。パラレル信号送信部1124は、オーバーヘッド付加部1123から出力されたトランスポートフレームを、OTL4.10インタフェースによりDSPのデジタル信号処理部1013bへパラレルに送る。

誤り訂正復号化部1186は、100Gトランスポートフレーム(OTU4:112G)に誤り訂正処理を行い、誤り訂正処理された100Gトランスポートフレームをパラレル信号送信部1188に出力する。パラレル信号送信部1188は、100Gトランスポートフレーム(OTU4:112G)を、DSPとOTU4フレーマ間のOTL4.10インタフェースによりOTU4フレーマの固定レートフレーミング処理部1015へパラレルに送る。
具体的には、受信側レート変換部1137は、受信した50Gトランスポートフレーム(56G)の半分のTS(TS群AのTS1~TS5)を、1フレーム目の100Gトランスポートフレームのペイロードにおける決められた位置に含まれる50G分のTS(例えば、TS1~TS5)にマッピングする。受信側レート変換部1137は、100Gトランスポートフレームのペイロードにおける残りの50G分のTS(例えば、TS6~TS10)に、FS等のダミー信号を挿入する。
さらに、受信側レート変換部1137は、受信した50Gトランスポートフレーム(56G)の残り半分のTS(TS群BのTS1~TS5)を、2フレーム目の100Gトランスポートフレームのペイロードにおける決められた位置に含まれる50G分のTS(例えば、TS1~TS5)にマッピングする。受信側レート変換部1137は、2フレーム目の100Gトランスポートフレームにも1フレーム目と同様に、ペイロードにおける残りの50G分のTS(例えば、TS6~TS10)に、FS等のダミー信号を挿入する。
上記のようにすることで、1つの50Gトランスポートフレームから2つの100Gトランスポートフレーム(OTU4)を復元する。
本実施形態によれば、50Gトランスポートフレームと従来の100Gトランスポートフレームを多重して、転送することが可能となる。本実施形態は、8QAM 150G転送を行う場合に適している。
本実施形態は、ライン側が33.6Gである場合のフレーミングである。
本実施形態のトランスポンダは、図22に示す第4の実施形態のトランスポンダ1001と同様の構成である。本実施形態では、フレーミング処理部1012が、OTU4フレーマに具備され、デジタル信号処理部1013がデジタルコヒーレント信号処理LSI(DSP)に具備されるものとする。本実施形態では、クライアント信号のビットレートが31Gであり、OTU4フレーマとDSPの間のインタフェースに112GのOTU4対応のOTL4.10が適用され、ライン信号のビットレートが33.6Gである場合の転送を行う例を示す。
時刻T0から時刻T0+10×1.168μs(マイクロ秒)までの10フレーム分の100Gトランスポートフレームは、3フレーム分の30Gトランスポートフレームに対応する。10フレーム分の100Gトランスポートフレームの番号をそれぞれ、a0、a1、a2、b、a3、a4、c、a5、a6、a7とする。
送信側レート変換部1132は、1~3フレーム目(フレーム番号a0、a1、a2)の100Gトランスポートフレームのペイロードと、4フレーム目(フレーム番号b)の100Gトランスポートフレームのペイロードの一部を、1フレーム目の30Gトランスポートフレームのペイロードに設定する。さらに、送信側レート変換部1132は、4フレーム目(フレーム番号b)の100Gトランスポートフレームのペイロードの残りと、5~6フレーム目(フレーム番号a3、a4)の100Gトランスポートフレームのペイロードと、7フレーム目(フレーム番号c)の100Gトランスポートフレームのペイロードの一部を、2フレーム目の30Gトランスポートフレームのペイロードに設定する。送信側レート変換部1132は、7フレーム目(フレーム番号c)の100Gトランスポートフレームのペイロードの残りと、8~10フレーム目(フレーム番号a5、a6、a7)の100Gトランスポートフレームのペイロードを、3フレーム目の30Gトランスポートフレームのペイロードに設定する。
図37において、送信側レート変換部1132は、1フレーム目(フレーム番号a0)のOTU4の100Gトランスポートフレーム(112G)内のペイロードにおける決められた位置(TS1~TS3)の30G分のTSからクライアント信号を抽出する。送信側レート変換部1132は、抽出したクライアント信号を、30Gトランスポートフレーム(33.6G)のペイロードの10個のTSのうち3個のTS(TS群A1)にマッピングする。3/10のTSを用いるのは、100Gトランスポートフレーム(112G)から30Gトランスポートフレーム(33.6G)へ変更するためである。
送信側レート変換部1132は、7フレーム目(フレーム番号c)のOTU4の100Gトランスポートフレーム(112G)内のペイロードにおける決められた位置(TS1~TS3)の30G分のTSからクライアント信号を抽出する。送信側レート変換部1132は、抽出したクライアント信号の2/3を2フレーム目の30Gトランスポートフレーム(33.6G)のペイロードにおける2/10のTS(TS群B4)に設定する。送信側レート変換部1132は、残りの1/3のクライアント信号を、図39に示すように3フレーム目の30Gトランスポートフレームのペイロードにおける1/10のTS(TS群C1)に設定する。
送信側レート変換部1132は、2、3、5、6、8、9、10フレーム目のOTU4のOHは削除する。
上記のように設定することで、送信側レート変換部1132は、100Gトランスポートフレーム(OTU4:112G)から30Gトランスポートフレーム(33.6G)を生成する。
送信側レート変換部1132は、生成した30Gトランスポートフレームを誤り訂正符号化部1133に出力する。誤り訂正符号化部1133は、30Gトランスポートフレームに誤り訂正符号を付加し、誤り訂正符号が付加された30Gトランスポートフレームをデジタル信号送信処理部1134に送信する。なお、誤り訂正符号化部1133は無くてもよい。
デジタル信号送信処理部1134は、30Gトランスポートフレームに対して長距離伝送のための光デジタルコヒーレント処理を行い、処理された30Gトランスポートフレームをライン信号送受信部1014に送信する。なお、デジタル信号送信処理部1134は無くてもよい。
ライン信号送受信部1014は、デジタル信号処理部1013から出力された30GトランスポートフレームのデータをE/O変換し、変換により得られた光信号をライン信号としてネットワークへ送信する。送信されたデータは、対向のトランスポンダ1001のライン信号送受信部1014が受信する。
以降も同様に、受信側レート変換部1137は、送信側レート変換部1132と逆のマッピング処理を行うことで、3フレーム分の30Gトランスポートフレームから10フレーム分の100Gトランスポートフレーム(OTU4)を復元する。
本実施形態によれば、50G以外のレート(30G)の転送を柔軟に行うことが可能になる。本実施形態は、新たな変調方式の登場や、ADC/DACのスピードの変更により、柔軟なレートの転送が必要となった場合に適する。
また、上述した第4~第11の実施形態では、OTNフレームを例に説明したが、これに限らず、他のフレーム、例えばSDH(Synchronous Digital Hierarchy)のフレーム等を用いてもよい。
<第12の実施形態>
図40は、本発明の第12の実施形態によるマルチキャリア光伝送システム2001の構成を示す概略ブロック図である。マルチキャリア光伝送システム2001の構成は、基本的には、図19に示したマルチキャリア光伝送システム701と同様である。
上記の第12の実施形態の変形例のように誤り訂正処理を複数段にして誤り訂正符号化を連接させることにより、図40に示した第12の実施形態の構成により得られる効果に加えて、合計で約20%の高い冗長度の誤り訂正の性能を実現することが可能となる。また、誤り訂正符号化の機能部を2つに分けていることから、回路素子の配置において更に自由度を高めることが可能となる。
次に、本発明の第13の実施形態について説明する。図43は、本発明の第13の実施形態によるマルチキャリア光伝送システム2002を示す概略ブロック図である。マルチキャリア光伝送システム2002も、第12の実施形態のマルチキャリア光伝送システムと同様に2SC-DP-BPSK方式により100Gbit/sの伝送を行う。図43において、第12の実施形態と同じ構成については同じ符号を付し、以下、第12の実施形態の変形例である図41に示したマルチキャリア光伝送システム2001aと異なる構成について説明する。マルチキャリア光伝送システム2002では、マルチキャリア光伝送システム2001aと同じく2段の誤り訂正符号化部及び誤り訂正復号部(すなわち、第一及び第二の誤り訂正符号化部、第一及び第二の誤り訂正復号部)を備えている。しかし、第一の誤り訂正符号化部2014が、第一の分配部2012の前に備えられ、第一の誤り訂正復号部2024が、第一の結合部2022の後に備えられている点で、マルチキャリア光伝送システム2002はマルチキャリア光伝送システム2001aと異なる。また、マルチキャリア光伝送システム2002においても、マルチキャリア光伝送システム2001aと同様に、例えば、第一の誤り訂正符号化部2014が、約7%の冗長度のHD-FECを行い、第二の誤り訂正符号化部2015a及び2015bが、約13%の冗長度のSD-FECを行う。
次に、本発明の第14の実施形態について説明する。図47は、本発明の第14の実施形態によるマルチキャリア光伝送システム2003を示す概略ブロック図である。マルチキャリア光伝送システム2003も、第12及び第13の実施形態のマルチキャリア光伝送システムと同様に2SC-DP-BPSK方式により100Gbit/sの伝送を行う。図47において、第12及び第13の実施形態と同じ構成については同じ符号を付し、以下、第12の実施形態の変形例である図41に示したマルチキャリア光伝送システム2001aと異なる構成について説明する。マルチキャリア光伝送システム2003においても、マルチキャリア光伝送システム2001aと同じく2段の誤り訂正符号化部及び誤り訂正復号部(すなわち、第一及び第二の誤り訂正符号化部、第一及び第二の誤り訂正復号部)を備えている。しかし、第二の誤り訂正符号化部2015-1、2015-2及び第二の誤り訂正符号化部2015-3、2015-4がそれぞれ第二の分配部2016a及び2016bの後に配置されている点で、マルチキャリア光伝送システム2003はマルチキャリア光伝送システム2001aと異なる。また、送信装置2010cの構成に対応するように、受信装置2020cにおいても、第二の誤り訂正復号部2025-1、2025-2及び第二の誤り訂正復号部2025-3、2025-4が、それぞれ第二の結合部2026a及び2026bの前に配置されている点で、マルチキャリア光伝送システム2003はマルチキャリア光伝送システム2001aと異なる。第14の実施形態の構成においても、マルチキャリア光伝送システム2001aと同様に、例えば、第一の誤り訂正符号化部2014a及び2014bが、約7%の冗長度のHD-FECを行い、第二の誤り訂正符号化部2015-1、2015-2、2015-3、2015-4が、約13%の冗長度のSD-FECを行う。
次に、本発明の第15の実施形態について説明する。図48は、本発明の第15の実施形態によるマルチキャリア光伝送システム2004を示す概略ブロック図である。マルチキャリア光伝送システム2004も、第12、第13及び第14の実施形態のマルチキャリア光伝送システムと同様に2SC-DP-BPSK方式により100Gbit/sの伝送を行う。図48において、第12、第13、及び第14の実施形態と同じ構成については同じ符号を付し、以下、図40に示した第12の実施形態のマルチキャリア光伝送システム2001と異なる構成について説明する。マルチキャリア光伝送システム2001は、第一の分配部2012と、第一の分配部2012によって分配された2つのレーンに配置された2つの誤り訂正符号化部2013a及び2013bと、誤り訂正符号が付加された信号を更に分配する第二の分配部2016a及び2016bとを備える構成としていた。これに対してマルチキャリア光伝送システム2004は、マルチキャリア光伝送システム2001の第一の分配部2012、誤り訂正符号化部2013a及び2013b、第二の分配部2016a及び2016bの並びを、第一の分配部2012、第二の分配部2016a及び2016b、誤り訂正符号化部2013a及び2013bの並びに変更し、さらに、第一の分配部2012と第二の分配部2016a及び2016bを一つの分配部2017にまとめ、4つの誤り訂正符号化部2013-1、2013-2、2013-3、2013-4を配置した構成となっている。受信装置2020dの構成についても、送信装置2010dの構成に対応して分波部・受信部・デジタル復調部2029の後に4つの誤り訂正復号部2023-1、2023-2、2023-3、2023-4を備え、4つに分かれた信号を結合する結合部2027を備える構成となっている。
これにより、分配部2017が出力する分配後の信号においてもフレーム構造を検出することができる。したがって、誤り訂正符号化処理などのフレーム構造を利用する信号処理を信号の分配後に行うことが可能となり、当該信号処理を行う回路素子を分配部の後段に分割して配置できる。第15の実施形態では、誤り訂正符号化部を4つに分けていることからマルチキャリア光伝送システム2001に比べてより柔軟な配置を行うことが可能となる。このように配置の自由度が高まることで、回路規模の制約により単一のデバイスで実現できない機能が、回路素子を複数のチップに分割して実現することが可能となる。
次に、本発明の第16の実施形態として、図51から図57を参照しつつ、上述した第12から第15の実施形態で示した構成における各機能部のチップへの分割例について説明する。第12から第15の実施形態においては、分配部の後に複数の誤り訂正符号化部を備え、結合部の前に複数の誤り訂正復号部を備える構成を示した。上述したように、一般に、誤り訂正処理の回路は大規模であり、高性能なものほど、また、処理するデータレートが高いほど、規模が大きくなる。そのため、単一のLSI、またはFPGAを用いたのでは、回路規模による制約から誤り訂正符号処理を実現することが困難な場合がある。これに対して、例えば、図51に示すように、第12の実施形態によるマルチキャリア光伝送システム2001において、第一の分配部2012の後段で誤り訂正符号化の処理を行えるようにしたことにより、第一の分配部2012の後に、誤り訂正符号化の機能部を2つの誤り訂正符号化部(誤り訂正符号化部2013a及び2013b)に分けて配置することが可能となる。誤り訂正符号化の機能部を2つに分けたことで、1つの機能部で処理するビットレートを下げることができ、それに伴い、誤り訂正の性能を維持しつつ、誤り訂正符号化の回路規模を小さくすることができる。そのため、送信装置2010を構成する際に、適切な回路規模とした誤り訂正符号化の機能部を1つずつ有する2つのチップc1、c2の形態として高性能な誤り訂正符号化の処理を実現することが可能となる。これは、受信装置2020の誤り訂正復号部2023a及び2023bについても同様であり、2つのチップc3、c4の形態として高性能な誤り訂正復号の処理を実現することが可能となる。
なお、図51から図57に示したチップの分割例は、一例であり、回路規模などに応じて任意に分割してもよいものとする。
また、図55、図56、図57のクライアント信号受信部2011、分配部2017、クライアント信号送信部2021、結合部2027、及び図57の第一の誤り訂正符号化部2014、第一の誤り訂正復号部2024については、分割したチップのいずれかに含まれていてもよいし、別のチップとして分割されてもよく、適切な配置となるよう、任意に組み合わせて各々のチップに分割されるようにしてもよい。
