  • Optical path adjustment for wavelength division multiplexing

    Optical path adjustment for wavelength division multiplexing

    In this paper, we explore the application of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) to maximize the performance of Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) networks by optimizing optical fiber paths. Abstract Wavelength division multiplexing or WDM allows the combining of a number of independent information-carrying wavelengths onto the same fiber, because of the wide spectral region in which optical signals can be transmitted efficiently. The chapter begins with a quick historical account of the origin of optical communication and its exponential growth following the invention of erbium oped fiber amplifier (EDFA) leading to the widespread adoption of WDM. TDM multiplexes traffic from different sources by interleaving small "slices" of data from each source. Through rigorous evaluation metrics such as Data Transmission Speed Analysis and Congestion Reduction.
