Ultrafast self routing between 10 ports using spectrally encoded DPSK signals at 10 and 20 Gb/s with a single processor based on FWM

Abstract

Ultra-fast self-routing of DPSK signals is demonstrated using a single processor for multiple spectral codes based on four-wave-mixing and selective filtering. A family of 10 codes with maximum bin separation for 10 and 20 Gb/s rates is demonstrated.
