Abstract :
Recent progress in optical time-division-multiplexed (TDM) transmission technologies is reviewed including optical short pulse generation, time-division multiplexing/demultiplexing, timing extraction, and waveform measurement. The latest 400-Gbit/s transmission experiments based on optical signal processing are presented and the possibility of terabit/second TDM transmission is discussed
