Abstract :
This paper describes the feasibility and the applicability of the Wavelength-Division-Multiplexing (WDM) system with two types of preliminary WDM transmission experiments. Through this study, it has become clear that WDM technologies play a major role in optical fiber systems and have the possibilities of realizing the various optical fiber transmission systems.
