Abstract :
Demultiplexing of a 640 Gb/s single-polarization optical time-division multiplexed (OTDM) signal and a 640 Gb/s signal with two alternating polarizations transmitted through 77 km of non-zero dispersion shifted fiber (NZDSF) are realized using a non-linear optical loop mirrors (NOLM) based on 500 m of highly non-linear fiber (HNLF).
