Abstract :
Presented is dynamic analysis for SOA-based regenerative amplification (SORA) of phase-noise-degraded DPSK signals, which led to the first recent practical demonstration of a SORA. The modelling results agree with the experiment. The regeneration is achieved without wavelength conversion and/or using additional laser resources.
