  • Abstract
    An all-optical serial header processor is demonstrated using a semiconductor laser amplifier in a loop mirror configuration (SLALOM). The operation of the header processor is discussed and it is experimentally demonstrated with a 10 Gbit/s Manchester encoded (information rate of 5 Gbit/s) packet stream. The operation of the header processor is based on the correlation function of the SLALOM. The header processor can be utilised in devising all-optical packet switches
