Formulae are derived for calculating the crosstalk power of homowavelength crosstalk and the total crosstalk at the receiver end. The results show that the optical switches induced crosstalk dominates over other crosstalk components of OXC, and the accumulated homowavelength crosstalk increases almost linearly with the increasing of the OXC number. At the receiver end , the heterowavelength crosstalk induced by the receiver optical filter has the same order as that of homowavelength crosstalk of OXC. The results of different optical components model are also discussed.展开更多
