Arrangemang för övervakning och/eller styrning av bithastigheten av datapulser

摘要

The invention concerns an arrangement for supervising and/or controlling the bit rate of data pulses that are transmitted from a transmitter (16) to at least one optical conduction path (22). The transmitter (16) has an input side (18) which receives electrical pulses from an electric connection (14) and an output side (20) from which light pulses are transmitted in response to the received electrical pulses. The arrangement comprises a supervising unit (24) with at least one input (26) which is suited to be connected to said electric connection (14). The supervising unit (24) is arranged to estimate or determine the bit rate of the pulses that are received at said input (26). The arrangement is arranged to carry out at least one measure which depends on the estimated or determined bit rate.
