Abstract

Efficient bit transmission, flexible spectrum utilization, polarization and space division multiplexing (PDM and SDM), and advanced laser designs are among the recent technologies adopted for boosting the capacity and spectral efficiency (SE) of optical communication networks. In addition, all-optical wavelength conversion is required to reduce network latency and energy consumption. In this paper, we exploit the modulation and polarization transparency features of the semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs) in order to build a photonics-based wavelength converter for single and super-channel quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK)-PDM signals. An experimental demonstration is conducted and high transmission speeds are achieved including 18-, 20-, and 25-Gbaud. The experimental results show a conversion of a super-channel signal consisting of three dual-polarization QPSK signals with 216-Gbps total aggregated data rate using a co-propagated pump four-wave mixing (FWM) configuration.

SOA中采用共极化泵浦的全光216 Gbps超信道数据交换

高效的比特传输、灵活的频谱利用、偏振和空分复用(PDM和SDM)以及先进的激光器设计是提高光通信网络容量和频谱效率(SE)的最新技术。此外，为了降低网络延迟和能耗，需要进行全光波长转换。在本文中，我们利用半导体光放大器(soa)的调制和偏振透明特性来构建基于光子的波长转换器，用于单通道和超通道正交相移键控(QPSK)-PDM信号。通过实验验证，实现了18、20、25波特的高速传输。实验结果表明，利用共传播泵浦四波混频(FWM)结构实现了由三个双极化QPSK信号组成的总聚合数据速率为216 gbps的超信道信号的转换。
