Abstract :
A serial all-optical header processing technique based on a two-pulse correlation principle in a semiconductor laser amplifier in a loop mirror (SLALOM) configuration that can number of output ports is presented. The demonstrated experimentally at a 10 Gbit/s Manchester encoded data stream. Experimental evidence is provided in the case of two different output ports
