“…Several techniques have been proposed to realize dynamic optical add/drop multiplexing [3,4,5], among them are the wavelength blocker (WB) type [6], wavelength selective switch type (WSS) [7] and planar-lightwave-circuit (PLC) type [8,9]. Each techniques has various trade-offs such as bandwidth, flexibility, channel isolation, switching times, reliability, integration and cost.…”

Abstract-In this paper, a reconfigurable optical add/drop multiplexer (ROADM) structure using an Opto-VLSI processor, two arrayed waveguide grating de/multiplexers (AWGs) and a custom-made fiber array is described. The fiber array consist of N pairs of upper and lower fibers, where each pair could function as an add, a drop or a thru multiplexers depending on the hologram generated by the Opto-VLSI processor. Experimental results show that the proposed ROADM structure has an average insertion loss of 5.5 dB for all the functions and a uniformity of 0.3 dB over a wide wavelength range from 1524 nm to 1576 nm. A low drop/thru crosstalk levels of around -40 dB is also demonstrated.

“…It has an inter-channel crosstalk of 12 dB, can tune to any wavelength within the FSR of 4.2 nm at a maximum driving power of 380 mW per channel. The device shows 12 dB extinction per channel in the through port and 17 dB in the drop port [73], and it has been tested at 40 Gbit/s without showing reduction of performance [74]. [68]) and Lambda Crossing [75] deliver products based on MR technology, whereas another one, LioniX [71] offers foundry services and MR technology for use by others.…”
