Abstract
A repeater for packet data optical communication between terminal devices includes a first section and a second section. The first section includes a first device for receiving a first optical signal transmitted from a terminal device and for converting the first optical signal into a first electric signal, a second device for frequency-converting the first electric signal to a second electric signal, and a third device for converting the second electric signal into a second optical signal and for transmitting the second optical signal. The second section includes a fourth device for receiving a third optical signal and for converting the third optical signal into a third electric signal, a fifth device for frequency-converting the third electric signal to a fourth electric signal, and a sixth device for converting the fourth electric signal into a fourth optical signal and for transmitting the fourth optical signal to a terminal device.
