ABSTRACT:
Disclosed herein is a bidirectional wavelength division multiplexed self-healing ring network. The ring network includes a central office and a plurality of remote nodes. Two optical fibers each connect the central office and the remote nodes in a ring form to allow optical signals to be bidirectionally received and transmitted between the central office and the remote nodes. One of the two optical fibers is a drop fiber for transmitting optical signals from the central office to the remote nodes, while the other is an add fiber for transmitting optical signals from the remote nodes to the central office.
