Abstract
An optical communication device includes a signal multiplexing unit that multiplexes a plurality of client signals and a signal transmission unit that converts a first multiplexed signal obtained by the multiplexing to an optical signal and transmits the optical signal. The optical communication device is a device capable of receiving data traffic greater than data traffic corresponding to a predetermined communication bandwidth.
Claims5
An optical communication device comprising:
- signal multiplexing circuitry to multiplex a plurality of client signals;
- signal transmitting circuitry to convert a first multiplexed signal obtained by the multiplexing to an optical signal and transmit the optical signal;
- signal receiving circuitry to receive an optical signal including a second multiplexed signal;
- frame analyzing circuitry to analyze a boundary of frames included in a first electric signal as one electric signal among a plurality of electric signals obtained by splitting the second multiplexed signal;
- frame processing circuitry to split the first electric signal based on the boundary of the frames;
- and
- an encoder to encode the frames obtained by the splitting,
- wherein
- the optical communication device is a device capable of receiving data traffic greater than data traffic corresponding to a predetermined communication bandwidth, and
- the frame processing circuitry transmits the frames to the encoder in consideration of a time represented by a packet gap.
