We Propose a novel structure add/drop multiplexer based on an all-fiber Mach-Zehnder interferometer and fiber Bragg grating. In this structure, wavelength separation is achieved by adjusting the amount of the phase shift in the Mach-Zehnder interferometer. The proposed add/drop multiplexer drops a part of signal at a specific wavelength and transmit the remnant of the signal to the different node separated wavelength in WDM network.

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.

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 $-30{\sim}90^{\circ}C$.

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 present an Active Optical Network(AON) . The AON uses the Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing(DWDM) from optical communication access network of ring type, and will be able to provide the smoothly service in the Bandwidth on Demand by using DWDM. It supports the connection of the multiple wavelength and the Sub-Carrier from the optical gigabit ethernet switch. The Wavelength Add Drop Multiplexer(WADM) extracts a specific wavelength, and composes a node of the ring network. The specific wavelength becomes demultiplexing in the Sub-Carrier and it is distributed in the user The active connection of optical gigabit ethernet switch where the distribution of access network is started and access terminal connection equipment is possible. By the BoD from the AON it compares the buffer size which changes, and it analyzes. Also the Time delay of bit compares with the throughput of server The limit of amount of time is decided. Consequently it will be able to realize the dynamic use protocol and an efficient algorithm of the network.

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.

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 present a 64-channel wavelength multiplexing architecture consisting of two 32-channel wavelength muitiplexers. Measured insertion losses of the 32-channel muitiplexers were below 8㏈ with uniformity in loss among channels better than 1㏈. The architecture of an OADM is also presented which employs FBGs. It is shown that the OADM can add or drop up to 12 channels.
