ABSTRACT:
A plurality of node apparatuses are connected by an optical transmission line. Each of the node apparatuses is assigned with a wavelength as an address different from the others. Therefore, when a first node apparatus transmits data to a second node apparatus, the data is of a wavelength corresponding to the address of the second node apparatus. The data transmission is carried out in a time slot defined by a frame pulse. The data of the corresponding wavelength is only received in the second node apparatus, and data of other wavelengths are passed through the second node apparatus. Consequently, media-access control is easily carried out independently in each node apparatus in an optical network system by using wavelength division multiplexing.
