  • Abstract
    Imperfect isolation of switching elements inside optical space switches gives rise to leakage signals that result in multisource crosstalk. The effects of this crosstalk are examined as a function of channel frequency spacing. A rigorous analysis of this phenomenon, based on Gauss quadrature rules method, is obtained considering a Benes architecture
