An optical frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) based self-healing unidirectional ring network is designed and its performance is verified. It employs arrayed waveguide grating add/drop multiplexers (ADMs) and erbium-doped fiber amplifiers (EDFAs) with waveguide level equalizers in each remote node. The route diversity configuration is employed to make the network robust and bit loss-free route switching is performed. The level diagram reproducibility for each OFDM channel is guaranteed by the waveguide-level equalizers. Successful transmission performance confirms the effectiveness of the proposed system
