All optical solition-based 2R regeneration at 170 Gbps
[NMB4]; International audience; We report the numerical and experimental studies of a spectrally filtered-based all-optical 2R regenerator at 170 Gbps. The fiber device is combined with a fast saturable absorber. BER assessment exhibits a receiver sensitivity improvement.
All-optical measurements of background, amplitude, and timing jitters for high speed pulse trains or PRBS sequences using autocorrelation function
International audience; We present a simple method for all-optical measurements of background, amplitude, and timing jitters of ultra high speed pulse trains or PRBS sequences using the jitter dependence of the intercorrelation-peak shape. This method is numerically and experimentally demonstrated on a 42.66 Gbit/s PRBS sequence and then applied to measure the jitter growths occurring during the propagation of a 160-GHz pulse train in a classical SMF/DCF dispersion map.
