Abstract :
We report on the first experimental demonstration of all-optical compression and decompression of variable length packets (40-1500 bytes), into fixed temporal sized packets using variable compression ratios. End-to-end (compression and decompression) packet BER was measured with a penalty of ∼1.65 dB.
