Abstract

Wavelength conversion of return-to-zero on-off keying (RZ-OOK) signals in polarization-division-multiplexing (PDM) systems based on cross-phase modulation (XPM) in highly nonlinear fiber (HNLF) using a polarization-diversified loop configuration is experimentally demonstrated. Eye-diagram-based signal-to-noise-ratio (SNR) results indicate that successful wavelength conversion can be achieved over the whole <i xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">C</i> -band.
