Abstract:
Disclosed are an optical transmission apparatus and method in a wavelength division multiplexing passive optical network (WDM-PON). The optical transmission apparatus outputs an optical signal by applying a DC bias current and an RF signal to a laser diode at a threshold current level of the laser diode, thereby broadening an optical spectrum of the laser diode. Accordingly, an optical link becomes less vulnerable to reflection induced noise, which contributes to improve stability and reliability of the optical link.
