  • Abstract
    Fibre-loop architectures employing high-density WDM for passive routing have been demonstrated using both DFB-laser and LED transmitters. The latter approach is known as ´spectrum slicing´. The first demonstration of broadband spectrally sliced transmission is reported. superluminescent diodes were used to transmit 150 Mbit/s on each of 10 WDM channels, or 50 Mbit/s on each of 16 WDM channels.
