Abstract :
The feasibility of a complete all-optical message encoding, error detection and correction system based in the (7,4) Hamming code is demonstrated. The message encoding and error detector are composed of all-optical logical gates and signal regenerators based on Mach-Zehnder interferometer configurations.
