Abstract:SWavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) optical ring network is becoming more and more attractive due to its high capacity and survivability against fiber breaks. At the same time wavelength routing simplifies the node structure by using optical add/drop multiplexer (OADM) and optical cross-connect (OXC) in the network. In the two-fiber unidirectional optical path-protection switching ring (TUPSR) network, two separate OADM equipments are required to add/drop channels from the two fiber-rings simultaneously.
