Performance analysis of applying a novel multiple output fiber ring light source to a fiber optical mesh switching network

Abstract

In this paper,we propose and demonstrate a novel technique for the spectrum-sliced wavelength-division-multiplexed optical communication-switching network.The fiber ring light source can be used to test the optical communication-switching network.We analyze the performance of the optical communication system, with considering the crosstalk and loss of each switching element and the light source power.We compare the worst case for the every channel to analysis the performance of the mesh-switching optical communication system.
