A facility in a communication system associates a unique identification signal with each currently active communications channel and then transmits the unique identification signal and associated information signals within the respective channel. In this way, apparatus that receives the transmitted signals may determine the number of channels that are active based on the number of the identification signals it receives and then output the received signals at a power level determined as a function of that number.

A protection facility is provided for use in an optical communications node that communicates with another optical communications node via first and second bidirectional communications paths respectively serving as a service path and protection path, in which a filter filters signals respectively received over the service and protection paths and generates a main signal and a complementary signal for each of the paths. A control unit then generates a Loss of Signal (LOS_A) indication for the service path if a SUM signal or DIFF signal respectively derived as a function of a sum of the main and complementary signals generated for the service path and difference between the main and complementary signals generated for the service path is less than a respective threshold value. A switch then invokes protection switching responsive to the presence of the LOS_A indication.

An optical amplifier is adapted to cancel the Raman gain of an optical transmission path that degrades those optical signals occupying the low end of the bandwidth such that the power is transferred from the latter signals to the optical signals occupying the high end of the bandwidth. More specifically, the optical amplifier adjusts the gain that it applies to the optical signals so that it favors the signal components at the low end of the bandwidth.
