Abstract

A number of optical networks based on the WDM-SCM technique are proposed. Physical realization of such networks are discussed. It is seen that cost saving as well as increased user numbers can be achieved using technologies easily available today. Various factors which affect the performance of such a network are also discussed. Further study of the performance of such networks under different traffic patterns will be carried out, this will facilitate the design of such networks in the near future.<>
