Optical module

Different optical wavelengths, also referred to as lambdas, of light are multiplexed in some optical modules using wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM). Variants include Coarse WDM (CWDM),

Optical Modulation (Chapter 10)

Optical modulation can be categorized as direct modulation or external modulation. Direct modulation is directly performed on an optical source, which is usually a

Modulation

Both can be accomplished through direct and external methods. For instance, gradually decreasing the driving current of a laser diode can shift the wavelength.
