Abstract :
10 Gbit/s 1 × 4 wavelength multicasting of a DPSK signal with NRZ-to-RZ format conversion is demonstrated. The operation is achieved by four-wave mixing of the input DPSK signal with a time- and wavelength-interleaved pulsed source. Four multicast channels have been achieved with error-free operation.
