Abstract :
We propose a simple wavelength reuse technique for WDM metro/access networks with centralized light sources. Using a deeply saturated SOA modulator located in a remote node, we erase the data on a low-extinction-ratio downstream signal and modulate it with new data to generate an upstream signal.
