The experimental implementation of an all-optical ROADM scheme for routing of an individual subchannel within an all -optical OFDM superchannel enables a fully flexible node compatible with future terabit per second superchannel transmission.Abstract:
We present the experimental implementation of an all-optical ROADM scheme for routing of an individual subchannel within an all-optical OFDM superchannel. The different functions required of optical node were demonstrated using interferometric technique with the extraction, drop, and addition of individual subchannel in a ten subchannels optically aggregated signal. The scheme we reported enables a fully flexible node compatible with future terabit per second superchannel transmission.read more
