We report on an all-optical demultiplexer based on gain-transparent operation of a semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) in an ultrafast-nonlinear interferometer (GT-UNI). The GT-UNI comprises a robust fiber-chip setup in a folded geometry. For switching window widths of 5.2 ps and 6.0 ps, error-free demultiplexing of 160-10 Gb/s is demonstrated
originalarbeite.High capacity all.optical networks capable of supporting bandwidth on demand S. ALEKSlC OVE, V. KRAJINOVIC Dynamic high-speed access to optical fiber can be achieved by transmitting data at a very high bit rate in a packet-switched manner. Access nodes, which are able to process high-speed optical packets and to provide fast switching in the optical domain, are the scope of this paper. All-optical techniques for short pulse generation and transmission, dispersion compensation, data rate conversion, clock recovery and header processing are described and discussed.
Abstract:An optical packet compression/decompression scheme applicable in ultrahighspeed OTDM networks is proposed. This full-extensible scheme allows high compression rates and !arge packet sizes by relaxing the medium access constrains. The improvement of the Optical Packet Compression-TDM (OPC-TDM) network performance achieved by reducing the rate-conversion latency is shown.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
