The proposed network offers high switching capacity since it uses multiple wavelengths for the information exchange. At the same time, it implies MAC and admission control protocols almost as simple as in a single channel network. Therefore, the proposed network also offers a rich set of features: reservations with fine granularity, fast bandwidth reservations, mixing of traffic with reservations and best-effort traffic.

A 2-dimensional waveguide model was successfully implemented to maximize the kink-free power from 980 nm pump lasers. Additionally, we show that high quality single crystal mirrors can be deposited epitaxially by MBE to eliminate COMD as a failure mode in these devices. Using state of the art manufacturing and packaging capabilities, the high power chip has been incorporated into the design of a high power wavelength stabilized 980 nm pump laser module. A typical curve showing fiber coupled power as a function of drive current for this family of laser modules is shown.

We optimized a cTQW structure for both switching energy and response time using InGaAs/AlAs/AlAsSb material system. In such a structure, we expect switching energy to be in the range of a few 100s to a few 10s of fJ (few 10s of nW) depending on the growth optimization. We estimated the LO-phonon assisted relaxation time to be about 500 fsec (switching speeds exceeding 1THz) with multi-wavelength applicability. This low energy and high speed QW structure is ideal for realizing highly efficient gate switch for futuristic all-optical communication networks with bit rates exceeding few 100 Gb/s.

We proposed Raman gain slope measurement method by measuring noise power originated from Raman gain, and pump power adjustment to flatten the gain on various transmission lines by using measured Raman gain slope. We also proposed the technique to vary average gain with flattened profile. Using the techniques, Raman gain profile could be automatically controlled at various average gains according to the characteristics of fibers and the amount of plant loss, without trial and error, as well as without probe signals. As a result, the DAR has come to be free from the troublesome trial and error adjustment onsite, even on various installation conditions.

We successfully demonstrated a novel type of RZ data receiver that is based on multi-sampling and logical OR operations (OR-RZ receiver). It has superior performance compared to a standard receiver when the signal is distorted by timing fitter and advantages in case of PMD corrupted signals.

In all the considered situations, even with gain locking turned on, the power per channel P/sub ch/ should always be kept below approximately -22 dBm, corresponding to a total useful EDFA output power of +4 dBm, a much lower level than the EDFA nominal output saturation power (16 dBm). Efficient gain locking is thus a fundamental issue in any true packet optical network.

In future optical label switching (OLS) network, optical layer routing loop control is crucial for maintaining the network stability. In this paper, an optical loop control scheme using optical time to live (TTL) count down is proposed and experimentally demonstrated for the first time. Asynchronous TTL count-down up to 24 bits for 20-Gb/s packets is demonstrated.

In summary we have demonstrated a fiber Bragg grating discriminator and tap monitor module for use in a low-chirp, high-power directly modulated RZ source at 10 Gb/s for ultra-long haul DWDM transmission systems. The fiber gratings provide both pulse shaping and wavelength locking capability in a compact all-fiber design.

A planar lightwave polarization stabilizer concept has been proposed which is based on a multi-feedback scheme providing individual and bipolar feedback signals for each of the phase shifters of the integrated optic waveguide structure. This allows for fast adaptation to changing input state of polarization and simple adaptation control. In part this feedback scheme has experimentally been confirmed by showing no receiver sensitivity degradation after stabilizing an 80 Gb/s RZ signal with changing polarization at the input port of a polarization sensitive OTDM receiver. Extension of the proposed feedback scheme to a planar PMD compensator was discussed by numerical simulation showing that pattern correlation and fast optical gates are required.

In conclusion, constant-intensity modulation eliminates the effects of both self phase modulation (SPM) and cross phase modulation (XPM), potentially increasing the limits to spectral efficiency in WDM systems. In the linear regime at high SNR, the spectral efficiency of constant-intensity modulation is 1.1 bit/s/Hz larger than half the Shannon limit. In practice, the improvement yielded by constant-intensity over unconstrained modulation formats depends on the relative strengths of XPM and FWM. A representative 10 span WDM system shows an improvement from 2.3 to 2.8 bit/s/Hz.
