Abstract

In this paper, experimental and theoretical investigations of TOAD system performance are implemented. 80Gb/s to 10Gb/s all-optical demultiplexing by the TOAD is demonstrated successfully. Based on the travelling wave model, the non-ideal problems encountered in the experiment are analyzed. The results show the position of SOA is no need to be strictly placed beside the loop midpoint, due to the switching window can be periodically generated with asymmetry values of SOA, and the position of switching window can be adjusted by varying the temporal deviation between counter-propagation signals. Furthermore, the unperfected coupling ratio and the synchronization jitter between the signal and control are crucial limits for the demultiplexing application in 160Gb/s OTDM system.
