  • Abstract
    In this paper we will discuss the implications of using all-optical OFDM in the network, the need for synchronisation and clock recovery, and demonstrate a simple all-optical clock recovery system for such superchannels. The recovered analogue clock was used to generate a second comb synchronised to the original from the transmitter.
