Abstract

The authors report a novel polarisation insensitive optical phase conjugator or wavelength converter using orthogonally polarised fibre distributed feedback lasers as four-wave mixing pumps in both dispersion shifted fibre and semiconductor optical amplifiers. Ultra-high bit rate operation up to 40 Gbit/s and mid-span spectral inversion transmission over 204 km of standard fibre is demonstrated.
