Abstract
Optical rings have found many applications in high speed Local Area Networks (LANs). Generally, such rings arc formed by point to point optical transmission links, implying optical to electrical conversions at each node. These repeated con versions affect the reliability, generate jitter, increase the susceptibility to electromagnetic interferences and limit the bit rate to that allowed by the node processing electronics.
