Abstract

AbstractWe experimentally demonstrate a regenerative multiwavelength conversion (MWC) of an input 10‐Gbit/s RZ signal to four output copies by using a single semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) and a tunable band pass filter (TBPF). Experiment results indicate that improvements in detected Q factor can be observed because of the compression of the input noise. Furthermore, as the probe light we used is a multiwavelength pulses‐train with the same frequency as the data signal, this configuration can realize 3R regenerative MWC without any change. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
