Title :
All-optical data regeneration based on self-phase modulation effect

Bell Labs., Lucent Technol., Holmdel, NJ, USA
Abstract :
A simple all-optical regeneration technique is described. The regenerator suppresses the noise in “zeros” and the amplitude fluctuations in “ones” of return-to-zero optical data streams. Numerical simulations and experimental results are presented
