Abstract
The feasibility of designing the optical level of a fast packet-switching system when Manchester-coded signals are used, has been confirmed by Q-factor measurements. These measurements show that such systems can be designed by using a simple S/N design even if the semiconductor optical amplifiers are in a saturated condition
