  • Abstract
    Crosstalk performance of monolithically integrated multiwavelength optical cross-connects (OXC´s) depends strongly on their architecture. In this paper, a semiquantitative analysis of crosstalk in 11 different architectures is presented. Two architectures are analyzed numerically in more detail and the results of the analysis show good agreement with previously reported experimental results
