Abstract
Recent developments in the area of multi-wavelength all-optical regeneration will be discussed. Simulation and experimental studies related with the design of such regeneration sub-systems based on a) quantum dot semiconductor optical amplifiers and b) highly non-linear fibers will be presented. Results from the experimental proof-of-principle demonstrations of the operation of fiber based multi-wavelength regenerators will be reported.
