COMMUNICATION SYSTEM, COMMUNICATION CONTROL METHOD, AND TRANSMISSION APPARATUS

摘要

A communication system includes a source node and an end node of a first working path, a source node and an end node of a second working path, and a source node and an end node of a common path serving as a protection path shared by the first and second working paths. The source node of the common path transfers one of signals received from the source nodes of the first and second working paths to the common path, and the end node of the common path transmits the signal received through the common path to each of the end nodes of the first and second working paths.

主权项

1. A transmission apparatus, comprising:
a first receiver configured to receive a first signal from a first node, the first node transmitting a signal to a first working path; a second receiver configured to receive a second signal from a second node, the second node transmitting a signal to a second working path; and a signal transfer unit configured to transfer one of the first signal and the second signal to a common path serving as a protection path shared by the first working path and the second working path.
