Abstract
Functionality is inserted into the physical layer of WDM optical networks in order to provide for an efficient carrier routing and packetβaddressing scheme. No optoelectronic conversions are needed along the network nodes, except at the source and destination nodes. Tuned transmitters or receivers are not used. The ancillary network routing management structure is dramatically reduced, together with the total network cost. Simple and efficient mechanisms to avoid optical carrier modulation inefficiency and data collision are introduced. Β© 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

We propose a new wavelength-division-multiplexed WDM optical amplifier cascade, based on erbium-doped fiber amplifiers, gain equalizing filters, and arrays of integrated waveguide amplifiers, to ensure good performance in wavelength-routed optical transport networks without the need for a complex ce
## Abstract A downstream transmission using a wavelengthβlocked FabryβPerot laser diode (FPβLD) with a spectrally sliced FPβLD as a WDM optical source is presented and experimentally demonstrated for application to a WDM passive optical network (PON) link. A sideβmode suppression ratio (SMSR) of be
Polarization-Independent Wavelength Conversion has been demonstrated using four-wave mixing in a single-ring fiber laser with a semiconductor optical amplifier. We developed a novel scheme employing a reflecting fiber grating, in which widely wavelength-tunable and counterpropagating pump waves are
