    • Consistent with the present disclosure a network is provided that includes a primary node and a plurality of secondary nodes. The primary node, as well as each of the secondary nodes, includes a laser that is “shared” between the transmit and receive sections. That is, light output from the laser is used for transmission as well as for coherent detection. In the coherent receiver, the frequency of the primary node laser is detected and, based on such detected frequency, the frequency of the secondary node laser is adjusted to detect the received information or data. Such frequency detection also serves to adjust the transmitted signal frequency, because the laser is shared between the transmit and receive portions in each secondary receiver. Light output from the primary node laser, which is also shared between transmit and receive portions in the primary node, is thus also set to a frequency that permits detection of each of the incoming optical signals by way of coherent detection. Since, in this example, only one laser is employed in the primary node, the primary node may have a simpler design and may be less expensive to manufacture compared to a primary node having multiple local oscillator lasers, each associated with a corresponding uplink optical signal.
