Abstract
We design a reconfigurable optical node for metropolitan WDM networks, and numerically study the capability of the node in the optical signal level. Unlike a long-haul WDM system, major limitations of metropolitan WDM systems are power loss, fiber dispersion and optical signal-to-noise ratio(OSNR) degradation due to EDFAs. Therefore, we include the behaviors of transmitter and receiver, and fiber, EDFAs, and optical filters(MUX/DeMux) in numerical simulations with varying parameters over wide range. From simulation results, we can identify the maximum span numbers for OC-48 and OC-192 to achieve $BER<10^{-12}$ using the node structure at various received powers and residual dispersions.
