We have experimentally demonstrated analysis of optical add-drop multiplexer (OADM) using Light Runner and optical spectrum analyzer. The OADM experiment were carried out using two channels for 1530 nm and 1550 nm at 50 khz modulation speed. It is shown the power of dropping channel is depending on the reflectivity of FBG and isolation of circulator.
