11 Dec 2012TL;DR: A reconfigurable electrical add/drop multiplexing node, a network, and an optoelectronic integrated circuit form a novel high capacity fiber-optic integrated transmission and switching system with a baseline target capacity in excess of 1 Tbps as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract: A reconfigurable electrical add/drop multiplexing node, a network, and optoelectronic integrated circuit form a novel high capacity fiber-optic integrated transmission and switching system with a baseline target capacity in excess of 1 Tbps. The node, network, and circuit can leverage optoelectronic integration of transmission and switching components along with using the full “transparency” window of modern optical fibers from about 1270 nm to about 1670 nm for a large number of relatively low-rate wavelengths. The electrical switching fabric can be part of a Reconfigurable Electrical Add/Drop Multiplexer (READM) with similar functionality as a Reconfigurable Optical Add/Drop Multiplexer (ROADM) except in a highly integrated fashion with the transmission components. The electrical switching fabric can implement flow switching on a composite signal to provide comparable functionality to optical components in electrical circuitry such as in Complementary metal-oxide-semiconductors.

TL;DR: This article defines the filterless optical network and shows to what extent a control plane could be adapted to it and how they impact topological performance, and the fact that wavelength usage increases greatly as the protection ratio shrinks is shown.
Abstract: In this article, we present the concept of the filterless optical network from a control plane perspective, defining the network and showing to what extent a control plane could be adapted to it. Then we propose a control plane architecture and study its performance. Filterless networks act as passive broadcast and select networks, in which active switching elements, such as the wavelength selection switch, are replaced by passive optical splitters and combiners, and network agility is provided by tunable transceivers. We introduce the concept of unfiltered channels and that of backward and forward ports, and show how they impact topological performance, and, in particular, the fact that wavelength usage increases greatly as the protection ratio shrinks.

27 Jul 2000TL;DR: In this article, an optical add/drop multiplexer (OADM) is provided wherein input optical channels are supplied on first and second optical fibers, e.g. via an optical splitter.
Abstract: An optical add/drop multiplexer (OADM) is provided wherein input optical channels are supplied on first and second optical fibers, e.g. via an optical splitter. Low loss interference filters, for example, coupled to the first and second optical fibers, select respective groups or bands of channels. Selected groups of channels to be dropped by the OADM may be demultiplexed with sub-demultiplexers into individual channels. Groups of express channels are supplied to associated filters or gratings to ensure that the channel groups selected from the first and second optical fibers to do not contain undesired channels. Channels to be added by the OADM are multiplexed with sub-multiplexers into channel groups corresponding to the dropped channel groups. The added channel groups and the express channel groups are combined on a single output fiber.

07 Nov 2011TL;DR: In this article, a port protection with flexible switch criteria is presented, which allows a user to provision a protection application on an OTN Port and select a switch criteria, Section Monitoring, Path Monitoring, or Tandem Connection Monitoring, without considering the provisioning state of an Optical channel Data Unit level k (ODUk) entity.
Abstract: The present disclosure provides Optical Transport Network (OTN) port protection systems and methods using flexible switch criteria. Specifically, the OTN port protection systems and methods provide linear protection in OTN such as 1+1 Protection with Automatic Protection Switching (APS) and/or 1+1 Subnetwork Connection Protection (SNCP) Protection. The OTN Port Protection with flexible switch criteria allows a user to provision a protection application on an OTN Port and select a switch criteria, Section Monitoring, Path Monitoring, or Tandem Connection Monitoring, without considering the provisioning state of an Optical channel Data Unit level k (ODUk) entity. The ODUk entity may either be cross-connected in the LO case or terminated in the HO case. The ODUk entity may be provisioned independently, after the port protection has been established.
