Abstract :
A simple bit-serial optical packet label swapping scheme based on RZ-DPSK encoded labels is demonstrated with label swapping experiment for 10-Gb/s optical packets. Penalty-free label swapping is achievable using SOA-based interferometric wavelength converters and optical phase modulators.
