Abstract

The invention relates to OADM with up and down wavelength channel adjustable based on plane waveguide, which comprises: a monomode waveguide MZI filter with four ports as a signal input port (1), a down port (2), an output port (3), and an up port (4); and Bragg optical gratings etched on two arms of the filter; wherein, the filter comprises two directional coupler composed of waveguides (15) ~ (17) and two parallel arms (18) with Bragg gratings (11) on top. This invention realizes up and down wavelength adjustable, uses micro-manufacture technology to integrate IC, and has wide application.

Description

1. Technical field: [0001] The invention relates to an optical add / drop multiplexer (OADM) based on a planar waveguide and with adjustable upper and lower wavelength channels. It belongs to the innovative technology in the planar optical waveguide add-drop multiplexing device. 2. Background technology: [0002] Optical Add-Drop Multiplexer (OADM) is one of the core devices of WDM all-optical communication network. Its function is to selectively receive and send some wavelength channels up and down from the transmission optical path locally, while not affecting the transmission of other wavelength channels. After the optical fiber communication network is introduced into OADM, the up / down routing of the wavelength channel can be realized conveniently and flexibly; the network can be dynamically reconfigured and self-healing; It has wavelength compatibility and business transparency; the introduction of OADM into the network can also more advantageously realize the detection ...
