Abstract
A transmission of optical signals generated by multi-line optical sources is provided via multichannel WDM optical network. Each multi-line optical source generates optical spectral lines within designated spectral range associated with the spectral window allocated for corresponding WDM channel, and comprises a plurality of spectral lines. Spectral lines are substantially narrower than the spectral separation between the lines.
