Dense Wavelength division multiplexing(DWDM) lightwave system requires multiplexer, demultiplexer and optical filter. In this paper, thus, we propose the Add-Drop Mux/Demux based on a Mach-Zehnder interferometer(MZI) with fiber Bragg grating(FBG). The Add-Drop Mux/Demux using FBG and MZI is able to minimize system and reduce weight. We also analyze output characteristics of Add-Drop Mux/Demux and present the optimum design data through the computer simulation.

Optical-layer restoration has been demonstrated with a wavelength-blocker (WB) -based reconfigurable optical add/drop multiplexer (ROADM). Two $2{\times}2$ optical switches with a control circuit were placed before and after a WB-based ROADM to provide automatic path restoration under fiber-failure conditions. Using the proposed node configuration, a 3-node self-healing ring (SHR) network has been implemented to demonstrate the feasibility of the automatic optical-layer restoration. From the results, the restoration time was measured to be ~4 ms under fiber-failure conditions, without any additional power penalty in receiver sensitivity.

In this paper, we study an optical add-drop multiplexer which consists of the fiber Bragg grating filter and investigate the temperature characteristics of it. To resolve the characteristics, we find and analyze numerically its temperature response, and fabricate an optical add/drop multiplexer and measure its output spectrum. From the obtained results, they show that the center wavelength of output spectrum shifts approximately 0.01230 nm/$^{\circ}C$ within a temperature range $-30{\sim}90^{\circ}C$.

We propose a new structure of bidirectional add/drop multiplexer that is a key component to implement bidirectional ring network. The proposed bidirectional add/drop multiplexer is based on fiber Bragg gratings. In experiment, we demonstrate the operation of the proposed bidirectional add/drop multiplexer in optical spectrum domain.

파장분할 다중화 광통신 선로 상에서, 특정 파장 채널을 임의로 선택하여 분리/첨가 할 수 있는 동적파장가감기(wavelength-division dynamic optical add-drop multiplexer)는 광 네트워크의 효율을 높이는데 핵심 소자라 할 수 있다. 지난 수년간 개발된 수많은 기술들 중에서, LiNbO$_3$ 광도파로 음향광학소자(acousto-optic tunable filter： AOTF)는 몇 가지의 특징적인 장점들을 보여줬는데, 예를 들면 넓은 영역의 파장 선택성, 짧은 스위칭 시간, 다중 채널 동작 가능성 등이다.

최근 급속히 성장하고 있는 광통신산업의 발전에 있어서 주목할 만한 경향 중에 하나는 제품의 소형화 및 집적화라 할 것이다. 마이크로 광모듈 접속/조립 시스템은 광모듈을 소형화하고 고기능성 광통신 부품의 개발에 있어 가장 필요한 장비이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 초소형 광모듈 접속/조립 시스템을 개발하기 위하여 두께가 약 30 $\mu\textrm{m}$인 박막형 필터와 렌즈일체형 파이버를 접속/조립할 수 있는 시스템을 개발 및 초소형 광통신용 1$\times$1 OADM(Optical Add/Drop Module) 모듈을 제작하였다.(중략)

In this paper, the output and temperature characteristics for an optical signal of the fiber bragg grating have been considered. Also, output characteristics which depend on the temperature changes have been investigated for an all-optic add/drop multiplexer based on the fiber bragg grating and Mach-Zehnder interferometer. From the obtained results, they show that the center wavelength of output spectrum shifts approximately 0.01230 nm/$^{\circ}C$ within a temperature range $-30^{\circ}C{\sim}90^{\circ}C$.

We have developed a fully functional reconfigurable optical add-drop multiplexer (ROADM) switch module using a polymer integrated photonic lightwave circuit technology. The polymer variable optical attenuator (VOA) array and digital optical switch array are integrated into one polymer PLC chip and packaged to form a 10-channel VOA integrated optical switch module. Four of these optical switch modules are used in the ROADM switch module to execute 40-channel switching and power equalization. As a wavelength division multiplexer (WDM) filter device, two C-band 40-channel athermal arrayed waveguide grating WDMs are used in the ROADM module. Optical power monitoring of each channel is carried out using a 5% tap PD. A controller and firmware having the functions of a 40-channel switch and VOA control, optical power monitoring, as well as TEC temperature control, and data communication interfaces are also developed in this study.
