DATA PROCESSING OF AN OPTICAL NETWORK ELEMENT

摘要

A method for data processing of an optical network element is provided, wherein a configuration information is received at the optical network element and a light signal is adjusted to a wavelength or wavelength range indicated by said configuration information; wherein an incoming optical signal is demodulated via the light signal and mixed as an electrical demodulated signal with a signal of an oscillator; wherein the signal of the oscillator is tuned to improve a reception of the incoming signal at the optical network element; and wherein the light signal is used for upstream modulation to provide a modulated optical upstream signal. Furthermore, an according device and a communication system are suggested including at least one such device.
