“…However, this noticeable drawback can be quite easily overcome by an additional stage based on a saturable absorber [1,18,19], which have now become suitable for high speed signals up to 160 GHz [27]. We have also shown that this approach presents several beneficial features, such as improved yield or the absence of additional timing jitter in the process.…”

-In this work, we report scaling rules for the design of an all-fibered soliton-based power limiter for reamplification and reshaping (2R) regeneration process. In particular, we propose general guidelines to fix the optimum fiber length and initial power of the regenerator. We quantitatively point out the optical power limiting effect of the device enabling a significant reduction of the amplitude jitter of a degraded signal. Influence of the initial level of amplitude jitter is discussed and the results are compared with a self-phase modulation-based configuration working in the normal dispersion regime. Realistic numerical simulations in the context of 160 Gbit/s signals confirm that an efficient improvement of the signal quality can be achieved by means of such a device.

“…With the development of long haul photonic networks working at high repetition rates (40 Gbit/s and beyond), performing an all-optical regeneration has become of a great interest to combat the cumulative impairments occurring during the signal propagation and to overcome the bandwidth limitations of the current electronic devices 1) . Indeed, during its propagation, the signal undergoes various degradations such as amplified spontaneous emission noise accumulation, chromatic dispersion as well as intra-channel non-linear effects.…”

“…These optical logic elements are suitable for a high-speed signal processing and they have already been established as the fundamental building blocks of all-optical switching nodes [11]. In this context, all-optical gates have been used as core elements performing a diversity of network functionalities, such as wavelength conversion [12], data regeneration [13], [14], clock recovery [15], [16], header from payload separation [17], [18], header matching [7], and data recovery [19].…”

Abstract-A 40-Gb/s asynchronous self-routing network and node architecture that exploits bit and packet level optical signal processing to perform synchronization, forwarding, and switching in the optical domain is presented. Optical packets are self-routed on a hop-by-hop basis through the network by using stacked optical tags, each representing a specific optical node. Each tag contains necessary control signals for configuring the node-switching matrix and forwarding each packet to the appropriate outgoing link and onto the next hop. In order to investigate the feasibility of their approach physical-layer simulations are performed, modeling each optical subsystem of the node showing acceptable signal quality and end-to-end bit error rates. In the All-optical selfRouTer EMploying bIt and packet-level procesSing (ARTEMIS) control plane, a timed/delayed resource reservation-based signaling scheme is employed combined with a load-balancing feedbackbased contention-avoidance mechanism that can guarantee a high performance in terms of blocking probability and end-toend delay.Index Terms-All-optical logic gate, all-optical signal processing, asynchronous traffic, feedback-based protocols, optical-burst switching (OBS), optical packet switching, self-routing, semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA), timed/delayed reservation.
