Abstract
An experimental optical WDM reconfigurable ring network is proposed. It is composed of three nodes incorporating tunable channel dropping receivers (TCDRs) and EDFAs. The reconfiguration and the protection of the ring are computer-controlled. The authors present first experimental results of a fully connected testbed demonstrator.Keywords
