On the Architecture and Design of Multi-Wavelength Passive Optical Arrayed Waveguide Grating Routers

Abstract

Fiber to the premises (FTTP) technology has become an attractive solution in the last two decades to overcome many limitations appeared with the wireless and copper based technologies in access network. Most of FTTP deployments are based on Passive Optical Network (PON) technology. PONs have become so popular in the optics technology because of its growing reputation in not only providing high speed connectivity but also because of its immunity to EM interference, high security, long distance reach, low cost and low energy consumption. Arrayed Waveguide Grating (AWGs) are passive optical devices that have been widely deployed and implemented in FTTP and many other applications. AWGs can serve as multiplexers, de-multiplexers, filters, routers, and as add/drop devices in many communication systems and optical based applications. In this paper, the AWG PON device is analyzed and simulated using Rsoft simulation tool for the design of multi wavelength optical passive multiplexer and de-multiplexer.
