Abstract :
We propose and demonstrate an all-optical tunable phase-preserving scheme for amplitude regeneration of amplitude modulated signals and phase modulated signals based on coherent optical nonlinear wave mixing using HNLF. A regeneration factor of 7 for OOK and a regeneration factor of 2.9 for BPSK are achieved.
