A multichannel optical slotted ring network is designed using a wavelength division multiplexing(WDM) technique and photonic packet switching devices. The electronics speed bottleneck is removed out of the ring, which allows utilization of the full bandwidth for the optical fiber transmission medium. The ring channel adopts a slotted ring concept with a destination cell remove strategy for the eing access mechanism. The slot size in the ring is selected as the same as that of ATM based cell in order to be used as B-ISDN Access Networks. In this paper, we devised a mathematical method to measure the average transfer delay characteristics of the network. The analytical method turned out to yield accurate results over a broad range of parameters in comparison to simulation results. From the study, we observed the average transfer delay of the network as the network parameters vary.

In the present paper routing and wavelength assignment (RWA) in optical WDM networks is considered. Previous techniques based on the combination of integer linear programming and graph coloring are complex and require extensive use of heuristics. Such methods are mostly slow and sometimes impossible to get results due to infeasibility. An alternative approach applied to RWA employs on the greedy algorithm for obtaining the maximum edge disjoint paths. Even though this approach is fast, it produces a solution for any connection request, which is very far from the optimal utilization of wavelengths. We propose a novel algorithm, which is based on the maximum flow technique to obtain the maximum quantity of edge, disjoint paths. Here we compare the offered method with previous maximum edge disjoint paths algorithms ap plied to the RWA.

Novel supervisory system for WDM transmission link using conventional optical time domain reflectometry was presented. By modifying the structure of erbuim doped fiber amplifier to support bi-directional transmission at arDR pulse wavelength and launching the optical pulse into transmission link in the opposite direction of data signal propagation to avoid the distortion by cross-gain modulation, it is possible to monitor the WDM link in service. To prove the validity of proposed scheme, the supervision result of 2.5 Gbps $\times$ 8 channel WDM 320 km transmission system in service by arDR was presented. And power penalty due to monitoring was measured as smaller than 0.3 dB. .3 dB.

Although designing a virtual topology for all-optical WDM wide-area networks has been extensively studied and several algorithms have been proposed, these algorithms assumed error-free communication between two nodes. However, noises from optical amplifiers and optical cross-connects can degraded the signal, resulting in a nonzero bit-error rate. In this paper, we investigate the effect of physical limitations on the virtual topology design. We show that for side-area all-optical networks where transmission distance is fairly long, virtual topology design algorithm that can determine the locations of opto-electronic(OE) and electro-optic(EO) conversions to set up a connection request with a high BER in a multihop manner.

1960년대에 발명된 광섬유를 이용한 광통신기술은 1980년대 이래 빠르게 보급되었다. 특히 인터넷 트래픽이 폭발적으로 증가하기 시작한 1990년대 후반에 파장 분할 다중화(WDM) 기술이 상용화 되었으며 이 기술은 불과 수년 사이에 하나의 물리적인 광섬유 한 가닥을 통해 독립적인 수백 채널의 신호를 전송할 수 있는 수준에 이르렀다. 이에 더하여 ETDM 기술의 발전으로 채널 당 10Gbps 내지 40Gbps에 이르는 신호를 전송할 수 있게 되어 광섬유 선로 당 전송 용량은 테라급이 가능해졌다. 전송 용량의 빠른 확장과 과장된 수요 예측은 결국 공급 과잉을 초래하여 최근 수 년간 광전송 분야 시장이 침체된바 있다. 그러나 매년 약 두 배씩 꾸준히 증가하는 트래픽 덕에 최근에는 과잉 공급 분이 소진되어 가고 있으며 새로 시장이 활성화되고 있다. 새 시장에서는 종래의 점대점 방식을 넘어 메시형의 WDM 광 네트워크가 등장할 것이며 이에 따른 다양한 요소 기술을 요구하게 될 것이다. 본 고에서는 광전송 기술의 핵심 분야인 광 트랜스폰더 기술, 광 증폭기 기술, 그리고 광 네트워크 기술을 중심으로 현황과 발전전망을 알아본다.

파장분할다중화방식(WDM-Wavelength Division Multiplexing) 네트워크는 차세대 전송망으로서 주목받고 있다. 광경로들의 집합으로서 WDM 네트워크의 가상 토폴로지가 정의되는데, 각각의 광경로를 정의하는 광학 스위치들이 재구성 가능하기 때문에, 가상 토폴로지 또한 재구성 가능하게 된다. 이러한 WDM 네트워크의 특징은 IP, SONET, ATM과 같은 클라이언트 층이 요구하는 트래픽 패턴에 따라 가상 토폴로지를 재구성함으로서 네트워크 성능을 최적화시킬 수 있게 된다. 본 논문에서는 시간에 따라 변화하는 트래픽 패턴 하에서 가상 토폴로지를 재구성하면서, 각 광경로의 트래픽에 대한 로드벨런싱을 수행하는 기법을 제시한다. 이 기법은 기존의 기법들과 달리 미래의 트래픽 패턴을 알고 있다는 가정을 필요로 하지 않으며, 동적인 워터마즈 결정을 통해 전범위에서의 로드벨런싱을 수행하게 된다.

I propose the 5Gbps/1.25Gbps WDM/TDM hybrid Passive Optical Network(PON) with inverse RZ(Return to Zero) code coded downstream and NRZ(Non Return to Zero) upstream re-modulation and analyze its performance by performing simulation with MATLAB. The results have shown that an optical line termination (OLT) can be connected to 8, 16 optical network unit (ONU)s with the Bit Error Rate(BER) of $10^{-9}$ when the distance between OLT and ONU is 10Km and transmitted optical powers are more than -3.8, -0.9dBm, respectively. The proposed WDM/TDM hybrid PON system can solve the problem of data rate limit in upstream which happened in the conventional TDM PON because the upstream data rate is proportional to ONU and does not require a light source in ONU and its control circuits in OLT, thus can be a useful technology for asymmetric optical subscriber networks.

The performance of Manchester-coded ASK optical wavelength division multiplexing(WDM) systems is evaluated laking into account the shot noise and the four wave mixing(FWM) caused by fiber nonlinearities. The result is compared to conventional non-return-to-zero(NRZ) systems for ASK modulation formats. Further, the dynamic range, defined as the ratio of the maximum input power(limited by the FWM), to the minimum input power(limited by receiver sensitivity), is evaluated. For 1.55 rm 16 channel WDM systems, the dynamic range of ASK Manchester coded systems shows a 2.0 dB improvement with respect to the NRZ. This result holds true for both dispersion-shifted fiber and conventional fiber it has been obtained for 10 GHz channel spacing, 1 Gbps/channel bit rate.

The performance of Manchester-coded DPSK optical wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) systems using a stochastic approach is evaluated taking into account the shot noise and the four-wave mixing (FWM) caused by fiber nonlinearities. The result of Manchester-coded system is compared to conventional non-return-to-zero (NRZ) systems for DPSK modulation formats. Further, the dynamic range, defined as the ratio of the maximum input power (limited by the FWM), to the minimum input power (limited by receiver sensitivity), is evaluated. For $1.55.{\mu}m$16 channel WDM systems, the dynamic range of DPSK Manchester coded systems shows a 2.1 dB improvement with respect to the NRZ. This result holds true for both dispersion-shifted fiber and conventional fiber; it has been obtained for 10 GHz channel spacing, 1 Gbps/channel bit rate.t rate.
