A Concept of a Hybrid WDM/TDM Topology Using the Fabry-Perot Laser in the Optiwave Simulation Environment

The aim of this article is to point out the possibility of solving problems related to a concept of a flexible hybrid optical access network. The entire topology design was realized using the OPTIWAVE development environment in which particular test measurements were carried out as well. Therefore, in the following chapters, we will subsequently focus on individual parts of the proposed topology and will give reasons for their functions whilst the last part of the article consists of values measured in the topology and their overall evaluation.
