Polarization-Independent All-Optical Regenerator for DPSK Data

Abstract: Abstract:We demonstrate polarization-independent simultaneous all-optical phase-preserving amplitude regeneration and wavelength conversion of NRZ differential phase shift keying (DPSK) data by four-wave mixing (FWM) in a semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA). The dependence upon polarization state of the signals is eliminated by using a co-polarized dual-pump architecture. Investigation on the regenerative capability vs. pumps detuning shows significant BER threshold margin improvement over 6 nm conversion ra… Show more

“…Most of the work completed so far on all-optical signal regeneration has exploited the nonlinear properties of optical fibers [ 178 , 179 ] or semiconductor optical amplifiers (OAS) [ 180 , 181 , 182 ]. Figure 14 shows the experimental setup for characterization of a polarization-independent differential phase shift keying (DPSK) regenerative wavelength converter [ 181 ]. A 10 Gb/s DPSK data stream at λ DATA is generated by modulating the output of a tunable laser (TL) with a Mach–Zehnder modulator (MZM) driven by a bit pattern generator (BPG).…”
