Abstract
We investigated the window properties of SOALOM (Semiconductor optical amplifier in a loop mirror) used as a 3R regenerator using simulation method. A multi-section model of SOA (semiconductor optical amplifier) was used in our simulation. The switching pulse was assumed to be a noisy Gaussian pulse with finite ER (Extinction Ratio). The influence of some system parameters such as the pulse width and peak power of the switching pulse, the applied current to SOA, and SOA displacement in the loop on the window properties was discussed.
