Abstract

An all-optical regenerative wavelength multicasting scenario for differential phase shift keyed (DPSK) signal is experimentally demonstrated. This scheme is composed of a one-bit delay interferometer demodulation stage followed by a single semiconductor optical amplifier. The experimental results show that the input signal wavelength is simultaneously converted to six different wavelengths at 10 Gb/s with signal regeneration. The power penalties, for all different wavelengths, are less than −0.8 dB at 10⁻⁹ bit error rate (BER) level.
