Abstract :
This work presents an application of control theory and /spl mu/-analysis to stability analysis of optical communication networks. The network transfer matrix representation is used and simplified so that the propagation time-delay is isolated on a link-by-link basis. The optical network stability problem is reformulated as a robust stability problem. Sufficient stability conditions are developed by applying /spl mu/- analysis and Pade approximation.
