Novel wavelength tunable filter offering multi-stage selection for colorless, directionless, and contentionless ROADMs

چکیده
We demonstrate a Colorless, Directionless, and Contentionless add/drop that is made possible by newly proposed multistage tunable filters; it will be effective in the creation of flexible and dynamic optical path networks. The filters consist of small-scale switches and AWGs (Arrayed Waveguide Gratings) and so are cost effective. The technical feasibility of the drop configuration using proposed tunable filters is experimentally verified.

Optical Node Architectures That Utilize Dedicated Add/Drop Switches to Realize Colorless, Directionless and Contentionless Capability
This paper proposes optical node architectures for the single-layer optical cross-connect (OXC) and hierarchical OXC (HOXC) that utilize dedicated add/drop switches for originating/terminating traffic at a node. For both single-layer OXC and HOXC, three architectures with different restrictions on add/drop capabilities are presented. The performance of the proposed architectures is compared thr...
متن کاملOptical network scaling: roles of spectral and spatial aggregation.
As the bit rates of routed data streams exceed the throughput of single wavelength-division multiplexing channels, spectral and spatial traffic aggregation become essential for optical network scaling. These aggregation techniques reduce network routing complexity by increasing spectral efficiency to decrease the number of fibers, and by increasing switching granularity to decrease the number o...

متن کاملDesigning voltage tunable single and multi-channel optical filter with 1DDPC nano-structure
An electro-optic tunable single and multi-channel optical filter based on one-dimensional defective photonic crystal (1DDPC) structure is proposed. A couple of externally tunable defects in arrangement of (AB)5D1(BA)D2(BA)5, where A and B are dielectric materials, D1 and D2 are the tunable defects are used. The defects are composed of the ferroelectric LiNbO3 crystals and two pairs of thin Ag l...
