Abstract: There is provided an apparatus for generating a multi-channel array light source based on wavelength division multiplexing (WDM). More specifically, the apparatus has a structure in which an optical multiplexer and distributed feedback laser diode (DFB-LD) array modules are coupled. The optical multiplexer is configured with a plurality of input port columns spatially spaced apart from each other, so that high-speed electrical signal lines, matching resistors, and DFB-LDs are integrated with each input port column.
