Abstract
We demonstrated a two-fiber WDM ring network that handles 12.5-GHz-spaced 256 wavelengths using a tapped-type optical add drop multiplexer (OADM) consisting of small-scale 12.5-GHz-spaced arrayed waveguide gratings (AWGs) and BPFs. The feasibility of the network employing the prototype OCSM was shown by transmission experiments.
