Re Im

Transmission distance is limited by noise accumulation together with nonlinear and linear signal impairments. Long-distance systems may need signal regenerators.

It is desired that some or all of the electrical regenerators are replaced by all-optical regenerators.

Introduction

Issues All-optical regenerators  higher-speed operation  lower-power consumption  less format-dependent operation are expected. ◆ Regeneration of signals in advanced modulation formats (QPSK, 8PSK, QAM,....) is yet to be explored. ◆ Regenerators accept only signals meeting predetermined conditions (pulse width, chirp,...). ◆ DEMUX/MUX are needed in general for regeneration of WDM signals.

(D)QPSK Regenerator Using Amplitude Regenerators

  • Required strength of 2R amplitude regenerators is larger than

that of DPSK regenerators.

Delay interferometers (DIs) are not operated at their maxima in output power vs phase difference response. Suppression of input phase noise is weaker.

  • Logic alteration can be recovered by suitable pre/post coding at

terminals.

  • Coherent demodulation instead of DI demodulation can be
  • used. (X. Yi et al., JLT28,587 (2010))

Issues

  • 1. Regenerators accept only predetermined-shaped pulses.

For wide acceptance of all-optical regenerators in practical systems, several issues must be addressed:

  • Optical dispersion compensation will be needed before the

regenerator.

  • In some types of regenerators, pulse overlap before

regenerators leads to inter-symbol interference.

  • Such ISI may be mitigated by signal processing at the

receiver such as Maximum Likelihood Sequence Estimation, while the regenerator performance is mostly retained. Cooperative use of

  • all-optical regeneration and other
  • ptical compensation methods
  • electrical signal processing at terminals.

will be a future research topic.
