Abstract:
The data packet buffering can be implemented in dual loop optical buffer (DLOB) through cross-phase modulation (XPM) between the control signal and the data packets. However, the output equality of dual wavelength signals will degrade due to the unbalanced gain and phase shift. This problem can be resolved by power equalization using the saturation characteristics of SOA. The data packets with 2.5 Gb/s can be buffered in DLOB for 16 cycles corresponding to 16.5 μs.The extinction ratio of the output packet is 8 dB while the S/N is 8.1 dB.
