Review of Robust Data Exchange Using Optical Nonlinearities

Figure 8

Experimental setup for single-PPLN-based 10 Gbit/s tributary channel exchange between two 160 Gbit/s signals. MLL: mode-locked laser; EDFA: erbium-doped fiber amplifier; ODL: optical tunable delay line; AM: amplitude modulator; BPF: band-pass filter; PC: polarization controller; OC: optical coupler; MUX: multiplexing; Pol.: polarizer; Rx: receiver.
