Abstract :
We present recent advances in phase-sensitive amplification technology and its application to the regeneration of phase-encoded signals. Using a combination of parametric effects in fibers and optical injection locking of lasers, it is possible to observe phase regeneration in signals with multiple levels of phase encoding.
