ABSTRACT:
A wavelength-division multiplexed self-healing passive optical network is capable of detecting cut-off and deterioration of feeder fiber and distribution fiber and restoring a network with a star structure. The network includes a central office, a remote node, and a plurality of subscriber units. Working and protection feeder fibers connect the central office to the remote node. A reflection unit at an end of the remote node connects to the central office for reflecting a monitoring optical signal transmitted from the central office. An output monitor stage at an end of the central office connects to the remote node for detecting the reflected monitoring optical signal and generating a control signal based on the presence of abnormality of the working and protection feeder fibers.
