Low-Penalty 10Gb/s All-Optical Wavelength Conversion Using Semiconductor Optical Amplifiers

摘要

The low power penalty wavelength conversion technology at 1.55mum band operating at high biterate is addressed in this paper by experimental research. The improved performance of the 10Gb/s all-opticla wavelength converters based on XGM and FWM in SOA's after taking certain measures is reported. Optical fiber transmission of 10Gb/s converted NRZ signal over about 10Gb/s converted NRZ signal over about 100 km G.652 single mode fiber is implemented successfully in both of XGM and FWM regimes.
