Abstract :
We demonstrated all optical reshaping in 160 Gbit/s OTDM receiver utilizing cross-absorption modulation gate followed by self-phase modulation-based pulse-level discriminator. We simultaneously achieved improved extinction ratio and error-free demultiplexing for all sixteen tributary channels.
