Abstract

The high capacity dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM)/SCM passive optical networks (PON) based on a star-bus-ring architecture (SBRA) were proposed and experimentally verified. The architecture could perform self-heating functions in the remote node (RN) and bidirectional wavelength add/drop multiplexing (WADM). A special cascade add/drop transceiver (CAT) structure was employed at the optical network units (ONU) to add/drop desired up/downstream signals and to eliminate the optical beat interference (OBI) problem. The SBRA provided a high capacity, reliable, flexible and OBI free network.
