ABSTRACT:
An optical reconfigurable service ring (RSR) architecture based on a RSR channel and WDM channel plan matrix, and method for operation in a fiber network that provides WDM wavelength networking functionalities such as provisional wavelength services, optical circuit switching, optical layer2packet switching, optical storage switching, and optical layer3packet routing, are proposed. In one embodiment, sixteen wavelength are dynamically switching, routed, or distributed among five optical add/drop nodes using narrowly wavelength tunable transmitters and fixed optical add/drop multiplexer modules.
