“…In this arise development of internet or intranet, the necessity of bandwidth is becoming more and more serious. For increasing the bandwidth Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) (1) technology is preferred the most. WDM is a type of multiplexing which multiplexes different carrier signals into a single optical fiber thereby increasing the total bandwidth of transmission.…”

In this growing world, communication to every corner of the globe is the most important factor. Although technology is touching heights it is a great challenge to connect to subscribers present at different territories. For long distance transmission, Dense Wave Length Division Multiplexing (DWDM) has been preferred always as it provides a better bandwidth to operate, but when we comes to short term or short distance transmission it has some drawbacks, such as wide band change, more power consumption, and high cost factor for lower channels. CWDM can easily overcome these disadvantages. In this paper, the performance of 4*15 Gbps optical transmission link for Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing (CWDM) based optical network has been analyzed and compared using different photodetectors. Here we’ve compared the performances in terms of Q-Factor (Quality Factor), BER (Bit Error Rate), and eye height in the eye diagram. For experimental setup and simulation, Optisystem-18 software is used.

“…Therefore, the function of all-optical modulation format conversion is an important interface technique in optical networks which can provide flexible management and interface, and enhance the reconfigurability for different optical networks. Over the past few years, numerous format conversion schemes have been proposed and demonstrated, such as RZ-OOK to NRZ-OOK [3], [11], [12], NRZ-OOK to RZ-OOK [13]- [15], OOK to multi-level phase shift keying (M-PSK) [6]- [8], OOK to quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) [2]- [9]. Most of these schemes utilized nonlinear effects, such as cross-phase modulation (XPM) and FWM, generated in different nonlinear media, including nonlinear optical fiber, semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA), waveguide or others.…”

All-optical format conversion plays an important role in future transparent optical networks in order to enhance reconfigurability. On the other hand, the polarizationdivision multiplexing (PDM) technique has been extensively studied for achieving high-speed and high-spectral-efficiency optical networks. Since the state of polarization of PDM signals are randomly changed along the transmission optical link, it is important to elaborately design a polarization-insensitive conversion scheme in such a network. In this paper, we proposed and experimentally demonstrated an all-optical nonreturn-to-zero-return-to-zero format conversion for PDM on-off keying (OOK), binary phase-shift keying (BPSK), and quadrature phase-shift keying (QPSK) signals. Polarization-insensitive operation is achieved by utilizing the merit of the dualorthogonal-pump four-wave mixing (FWM) process in a highly nonlinear fiber, and receiver-sensitivity-gain operation is observed in the conversion process. The bit error ratio (BER) results show that receiver-sensitivity gains of $1.5, $0.8, and 0.3 dB for the OOK, BPSK, and QPSK PDM signals at BER values of 10 À9 , 10 À9 , and 10 À3 are obtained, respectively.Index Terms: Format conversion, polarization division multiplexing (PDM), four-wave mixing (FWM), highly nonlinear fiber (HNLF).

“…With all these multiplex techniques, the PDM has attracted more and more interest recently as it can double the SE by carrying two independent data streams on two orthogonal polarization states [4]. Although many previous reports had proposed and demonstrated the integrated transceivers for the PDM signal modulation and detection [5][6][7], to the best of our knowledge, there is no previous report on PDM signals processing using the Si-based integrated devices, and only a few schemes demonstrated the relative all optical PDM processing with discrete devices [8][9][10]. The difficulty for direct PDM signal processing based on the Si devices is mainly due to the polarization sensitivity induced by the nanoscale structure [11].…”

We propose and fabricate a scheme that combines a two-dimensional (2D) grating coupler and a delay interferometer (DI) in a loop configuration. According to the polarization states, the 2D grating coupler first splits the input signals into two paths, which copropagate in the loop and share a common DI, and then combines the two paths together to the same input port. The proposed device is polarization insensitive and can be used for polarization division multiplexed (PDM) signal processing. For demonstration, the PDM non return-to-zero differential-phase-shift-keying signals can be demodulated successfully. The bit error ratio measurements show an error free operation, reflecting the good performance and the practicability of the proposed device.
