Abstract:
A node in a wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) system is provided, which includes: a colorless optical transmitter, a first arrayed waveguide grating, a first waveband filter configured to divide an input optical signal into M sub-signals of different wavebands and output to a first optical switch, and a first optical coupler/a first optical combiner. A transmit end of the colorless optical transmitter is coupled to an input end of the first waveband filter via the first arrayed waveguide grating. The first optical switch is configured to connect an output end of the first waveband filter to an input end of the first optical coupler/the first optical combiner according to a control signal. An output end of the first optical coupler/the first optical combiner is coupled to an optical transmission path.

Claim (Index 7):
The node in the WDM system according to  claim 1 , wherein the first control signal comprises a plurality of electrical signals, each of the plurality of electrical signals instructs to connect the input end of the first optical coupler/the first optical combiner to a preset output end in the M output ends of the first waveband filter, and the plurality of electrical signals are sent by an optical network management plane, an optical network control plane, or an optical network controller in the WDM system.
