Abstract
This paper presents an investigation on the planar lightwave circuit (PLC) and Wavelength Selective Switch (WSS) based
Reconfigurable Optical Add Drop Multiplexer at 16 × 10 Gbps with 100 GHz channel spacing. The influence of increase in
length of fiber has been investigated to evaluate the performance of optical communication system. The dynamic power
transient with dynamic EDFA is also studied which equalizes power variations. It is found that the signal can be transmitted
with acceptable optical output power (-34 dBm) using dynamic ROADM based on PLC and WSS up to maximum
transmission distance of 462 Km with three dynamic EDFA’s..
Keywords
