Optical communication device
First Claim
1. An optical communication device using a digital coherent reception system comprising:
- a phase detector configured to generate, based on a signal obtained in a course of digital signal processing, a phase signal indicating a displacement of a sampling of a reception signal;
a clock switch-determiner configured to switch from an reference clock to a clock of transferred data when a value of an amplitude of the phase signal exceeds a given threshold value; and
a selector configured to synchronize the sampling of the reception signal and an internal clock of the digital signal processing with the reference clock at start time or signal loss time, and synchronize the sampling of the reception signal and the internal clock with the line clock of the reception signal except for the start time and the signal loss time.

Abstract
An optical communication device using a digital coherent reception system includes a phase detector configured to generate, based on a signal obtained in a course of digital signal processing, a phase signal indicating a displacement of a sampling of a reception signal, a clock switch-determiner configured to switch from an reference clock to a clock of transferred data when a value of an amplitude of the phase signal exceeds a given threshold value, and a selector configured to synchronize the sampling of the reception signal and an internal clock of the digital signal processing with the reference clock at start time or signal loss time, and synchronize the sampling of the reception signal and the internal clock with the line clock of the reception signal except for the start time and the signal loss time.

9. A clock switch-control method for an optical communication device that synchronizes a sampling of a reception signal and an internal clock of digital signal processing with a reference clock at start time and/or signal loss time and that synchronizes the sampling of a reception signal and the internal clock with a line clock of the reception signal, except for the start time and signal loss time, by using a digital coherent reception system, the clock switch-control method comprising:
-
generating, based on a signal obtained in a course of the digital signal processing, a phase signal indicating a displacement of the sampling; and switching from the reference clock to the line clock when a value of an amplitude of the phase signal exceeds a given threshold value.
