Abstract

Disclosed herein is a system for providing dynamic service using optical sub-carrier multiplexing type multi-channel access and method of controlling the same. The system includes a plurality of optical sub-carrier multiplexing modems, an optical gigabit-Ethernet switch and a plurality of wavelength division multiplexing couplers. The optical sub-carrier multiplexing modems transmit user traffic using multiple optical sub-carrier channel control. The optical gigabit-Ethernet switch is connected to an access network upstream and to the optical sub-carrier multiplexing modems downstream to manage a plurality of wavelengths and a plurality of optical sub-carrier channels according to the wavelengths. The wavelength division multiplexing couplers connect the plurality of optical sub-carrier multiplexing modems with the optical gigabit-Ethernet switch, perform aggregation and branching of a certain wavelength and transmit it.
