A multiwavelength optical power limiting amplifier (OLA) for high-speed SONET self-healing ring (SHR) networks is reported. Four possible OLA configurations are investigated. We find that the configuration consisting of a high-gain common erbium-doped fiber amplifier (EDFA) followed by a grating-multiplexed multiple-power-EDFA module is the best scheme for multiwavelength power-limiting operation. A constant channel output of > 11 dBm, small inter-channel power variation of ≤ 0.5 dB, and fairly low noise figure are obtained within a large dynamic range of 45 dB. Network application in a SHR network is also demonstrated and the ring size of 150 km served by a single three-WDM-channel OLA at channel rates of 2.488 Gb/s is obtained.
