چکیده
The paper presents a novel N-channel chained symmetric-Mach-Zehnder-interferometers demultiplexer (CSMZI) for high-speed OTDM networks. The proposed scheme offers parallel demultiplexing capability with reduced complexity. Simulation results show that low bit error rate performance is achieved with low power penalty.

High-speed All- Optical Time Division Multiplexed Node
In future high-speed self-routing photonic networks based on all-optical time division multiplexing (OTDM) it is highly desirable to carry out packet switching, clock recovery and demultplexing in the optical domain in order to avoid the bottleneck due to the optoelectronics conversion. In this paper we propose a self-routing OTDM node structure composed of an all-optical router and demultiplex...

متن کاملInvestigation of Control Pulse Power Effects on All-Optical SMZ Switch Performance
In this paper, the performance of an ultra-fast all-optical symmetric Mach Zehnder (SMZ) interferometer employed as a demultiplexer and/or a switch in an OTDM network is investigated by means of controlling the power of the control pulses. Employing control signals with optimum unequal powers results in reduced residual crosstalk, thus leading to improved bit error rate (BER) performance and re...
متن کاملA Thermally Tunable 1 × 4 Channel Wavelength Demultiplexer Designed on a Low-Loss Si3N4 Waveguide Platform
A thermally tunable 1 × 4 channel optical demultiplexer was designed using an ultra low-loss Si3N4 (propagation loss ~3.1 dB/m) waveguide. The demultiplexer has three 2 × 2 Mach-Zehnder interferometers (MZI), where each of the MZI contains two 2 × 2 general interference based multimode interference (MMI) couplers. The MMI couplers exhibit −3.3 dB to −3.7 dB power division ratios over a 50 nm wa...
متن کاملCrosstalk suppression in an all-optical symmetric Mach-Zehnder (SMZ) switch by using control pulses with unequal powers
Suppression of residual crosstalk is desired in switching a data channel from a multiple-channel frame in optical time division multiplexing (OTDM) network. Using the symmetric MachZehnder (SMZ) switch, it is a possible to obtain the desired data channel with relatively low residual crosstalk induced by the adjacent channels. In this paper we propose a simple and effective method to further sup...
