The need for high-speed data connection has significantly strained Mobile Network
Operators (MNOs) due to an exponential increase in traffic. Numerous innovative …

The turbo-switch (TS) architecture conceived for speeding up the response of conventional
semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs) is combined for the first time with the exceptional …

This paper presents novel burst-mode automatic gain controlled semiconductor optical
amplifiers (AGC-SOAs) that are utilized as one upstream channel of a repeater in long-reach …

This article presents a theoretical and experimental analysis of an all optical Burst Mode
Wavelength Converter (BMWC), exploiting a deeply saturated differentially biased …

A simple all-optical power equalization scheme based on a single two-section reflective
semiconductor optical amplifier (RSOA) is presented. Double optical path and non-uniform …

An all-optical power equalization scheme for mitigating atmospheric-turbulence-induced
scintillation is proposed by selecting the static operating points depending on the pump …

In this paper, we analyze in detail, based on numerical modeling, the use of a Lyot filter to
suppress the semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) pattern effect. By formulating a robust …

SOA and EDFA were compared as an upstream link extender on the bidirectional TDM–
PON system for 256 ONUs of 2.5 Gb/s and 50km transmission. The total power budget of this …

We conduct a thorough comparison of two basic notch filters employed to mitigate the
pattern effect that manifests when semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs) serve linear …
