چکیده
Optical packet switching has received considerable attention over the last few years. In this paper we discus how optical signal processing can play a role in photonic packet routing. Two examples are given. Firstly we discuss ultrafast wavelength switching at 160 Gbit/s in a single semiconductor optical amplifier. Secondly, an integrated photonic flip-flop is discussed. Finally a discussion is given about potential opportunities and limitations of optics in packet switched nodes. ©2005 Optical Society of America OCIS Codes: (250.5980) Semiconductor optical amplifiers; (190.4360) Nonlinear optics, devices

A Signal Processing Approach to Estimate Underwater Network Cardinalities with Lower Complexity
An inspection of signal processing approach in order to estimate underwater network cardinalities is conducted in this research. A matter of key prominence for underwater network is its cardinality estimation as the number of active cardinalities varies several times due to numerous natural and artificial reasons due to harsh underwater circumstances. So, a proper estimation technique is mandat...
متن کاملEfficiency of Target Location Scenarios in the Multi-Transmitter Multi-Receiver Passive Radar
Multi-transmitter multi-receiver passive radar, which locates target in the surveillance area by the reflected signals of the available opportunistic transmitter from the target, is of interest in many applications. In this paper, we investigate different signal processing scenarios in multi-transmitter multi-receiver passive radar. These scenarios include decentralized processing of reference ...
متن کاملDispersion controlled highly nonlinear fibers for all optical processing at telecoms wavelengths
We review our recent progress in the development of lead silicate glass fibers with high nonlinearity and tailored near-zero dispersion at telecommunication wavelengths, encompassing holey, all-solid microstructured and W-type fiber designs. The fabrication techniques and relative merits of each fiber design are described in detail. The optical properties of the fabricated fibers are assessed b...
متن کاملDesigning voltage tunable single and multi-channel optical filter with 1DDPC nano-structure
An electro-optic tunable single and multi-channel optical filter based on one-dimensional defective photonic crystal (1DDPC) structure is proposed. A couple of externally tunable defects in arrangement of (AB)5D1(BA)D2(BA)5, where A and B are dielectric materials, D1 and D2 are the tunable defects are used. The defects are composed of the ferroelectric LiNbO3 crystals and two pairs of thin Ag l...
