“…A variable attenuator was employed in one branch to ensure the powers of the two optical beams were identical before the PBC. This would avoid the imbalance between the signal qualities of the unicast and broadcast signals [7]. Furthermore, the degree of polarization (DOP) of the combined downlink carrier would be minimized.…”

“…Up to now, one of the major goals of the investigation is to develop simple cost-effective wavelength converters. By using injection-locked laser diodes is a promising simple approach for wavelength conversion [6,7]. Moreover, All-optical clock division is the great challenge in the Optical time-division multiplexing (OTDM) system for time-domain demultiplexing.…”

We numerically and experimentally demonstrate a technique for performing all optical wavelength conversion with simultaneous clock division based on the period-one oscillation and cross-gain modulation effect in an optically injected semiconductor laser. Through the numerically simulation, the results that 18 GHz divided optical clock with wavelength down conversion of 5nm can be obtained from 2 18 Gb/s optical time division multiplexed data stream. Moreover, the dependence of output signal on signal light strength, probe light strength, wavelength detuning, and bias current are also investigated, respectively. A proof-concept experiment is demonstrated with 12.4 GHz optical clock division and 4.33nm wavelength down conversion. The experimental results are consistent well with that of the numerical simulations.

“…Recently, several techniques for the wavelength conversions were reported and studied, such as using the nonlinear optical gating inside fiber loop, cross-gain modulation, cross-phase modulation, and four-wave mixing techniques based on semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) [3,4]. Furthermore, an all optical wavelength converter using a low-cost Fabry-Perot laser diode (FP-LD) was also proposed based on injection locking techniques [5], [6] for 2.5 Gb/s signal conversion. In accordance with the ref.…”
