title: Numerical investigation of all-optical add-drop multiplexing for spectrally overlapping OFDM signals.
abstract: We propose a novel architecture for all-optical add-drop multiplexing of OFDM signals. Sub-channel extraction is achieved by means of waveform replication and coherent subtraction from the OFDM super-channel. Numerical simulations have been carried out to benchmark the performance of the architecture against critical design parameters.
