Abstract
Crosstalk performance of monolithically integrated multiwavelength optical cross-connects (OXC's) depends strongly on their architecture. In this pape r, a semiquantitative analysis of crosstalk in II different architectures i s presented. Two architectures are analyzed numerically in more detail and the results of the analysis show good agreement with previously reported ex perimental results.
