ABSTRACT:
A transmitting apparatus using a multiple lambda source in WDM network, which has an improved structure to minimize costs and efforts and reduce time delay that may be incurred through wavelength shift. The transmitting apparatus comprises: a multiple lambda source providing a signal with multiple wavelengths, which carries no information; a first optical circulator for transferring the signal with multiple wavelengths carrying no information, which has been transmitted from the multiple lambda sources, to multiplexer/demultiplexer, the first optical circulator transferring a multiplexed signal from the multiplexer/demultiplexer. The multiplexer/demultiplexer demultiplexes the multiple wavelength optical signal from the first optical circulator and for multiplexing optical signals of each wavelength on which information is loaded. An optical space switch for line-distributing demultiplexed signals from the multiplexer/demultiplexer to a channelization module according to each wavelength of the demultiplexed signals, and for transferring optical signals from the channelization module to the multiplexer/demultiplexer; and the channelization module for modulating line distributed optical signals from the optical space switch to generate modulated optical signals, and for transferring the modulated optical signals to the optical space switch.
