Abstract :
A delayed nonlinear electro-optic oscillator producing ultra-high bandwidth and high complexity chaos is used for chaos encoded optical communication. The principle of operation and experimental results up to 3 Gbit/s with a 7×10-9 bit error rate are reported. The potential for operating at several 10s Gbit/s is demonstrated.
