摘要
All optical network based on wavelength division multiplexing transmission system with optical cross connect (OXC) is an essential approach for optical commumications.Crosstalk introduced by OXC (specially large scale one) is a key limiting factor for its capacity. Optical signal passing through a typical OXC is analyzed in this paper, followed by description of the generation and effect of intraband crosstalk.The power penalties induced by intraband crosstalk versus the number of multiplexed wavelengths M and the number of input fibers N have been given by numerical simulations. The results show that the coherent crosstalk is the most critical limitation on OXC and depends more closely on the number of multiplexed wavelengths M than the number of input fibers N . Crosstalk is suppressed by doubly filtering, fixing optimum decision-threshold and appropriately choosing the number of multiplexed wavelengths M .
