Abstract :
Summary form only given. In conclusion, we have demonstrated a 3-stage, 8-bit optical packet compressor that compresses an incoming packet at a bit rate of 100 Mb/s to an outgoing bit rate of 100 Gb/s. Optical packet compressors, which are a subset of tunable delay lines, are necessary for ultrafast packet-switched all-optical time division multiplexed networks.
