Abstract :
In this paper, a novel optical label and payload separation scheme, based on Semiconductor Optical Amplifier Mach-Zehnder interferometer (SOA-MZIs) is proposed. Numerical simulations show that the intensity contrast ratio for label and payload are more than 15dB. In addition, the SOA-MZI parameters are discussed and designed to optimize the performance of the proposed scheme.
