  • Abstract
    All-Optically switched wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) networks require channel-power control functions to provide reliable and high-performance communication services. We suggest a refined optical channel-power control technique using two variable optical attenuators (VOAs) and show simulation and experiment results.
