BIT ERROR GENERATION SYSTEM FOR OPTICAL NETWORKS

摘要

A bit error generating device includes a light source, an input device, and a control processor. The control processor includes logic configured to: receive protocol or bitrate information regarding a live traffic signal via the input device; determine bit error simulation signal parameters based on the received protocol or bitrate information; configure the light source to generate the bit error simulation signal based on the bit error simulation signal parameters; and instruct the light source to inject the bit error simulation signal into an optical fiber carrying the live traffic signal.
