Abstract

We experimentally demonstrate, simultaneous all-optical wavelength conversion for multichannel polarization-shift keying (PolSK) signal using four-wave-mixing in highly non-linear fiber. The proposed multichannel wavelength converter can realize channel group-delay and polarization-insensitive operation among the channels.
