Abstract

Two novel multi-granularity optical cross-connect (MG-OXC) architectures for dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) networks are proposed to realize transparent waveband switching, and hence to reduce the switching and transmission costs. The performances of the two architectures are studied and compared in detail. The functionality of the proposed interconnecting architecture is investigated for a 10-Gb/s WDM system.
