Abstract
The purpose of this chapter is to discuss the operation principle of an OTDM-WDM transmission system. It provides a clear picture about all building blocks of the OTDM-WDM transmission system. It also contains descriptions of various techniques that can be used to generate ultra short optical pulses for OTDM system. The basic principles of multiplexing and demultiplexing and filtering processes are explained by a discussion of several practical scenarios related to OTDM-WDM transmission system.
