Abstract

We evaluate the performance of a novel technique to equalize power variation between optical bursts using feed-forward control of semiconductor optical amplifier gain. The technique enables large dynamic range power equalization of incoming optical bursts with up to 10dB power difference. Moreover, the technique can remove SOA-induced waveform distortion. We achieve more than 4dB sensitivity improvement with equalized burst power.
