Abstract :
We propose an all passive re-use of the auto-correlation signal of OC-label recognition process to encode the new OC-label. This approach can reduce the complexity and cost of OC-label based optical packet or burst networks. Prove of concept experiments have been carried out employing SSFBG devices up to four network node hops (8 SSFBG devices in cascade). Optical-Code label recognition capabilities between auto-correlation and cross-correlation signals remain after the successive hops.
