Semiconductor optical amplifiers are useful building blocks for all-optical gates as
wavelength converters and OTDM demultiplexers. The paper reviews the progress from …

This paper reviews advanced optical burst switching (OBS) and optical packet switching
(OPS) technologies and discusses their roles in the future photonic Internet. Discussions …

This invaluable book provides a comprehensive treatment of design and applications of
semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOA). SOA is an important component for optical …

All-optical label swapping is a promising approach to ultra-high packet-rate routing and
forwarding directly in the optical layer. In this paper, we review results of the DARPA Next …

A field as diverse as optoelectronics needs a reference that is equally versatile. From basic
physics and light sources to devices and state-of-the-art applications, the Handbook of …

An ultra-low latency, high throughput internet protocol (IP) over wavelength division
multiplexing (WDM) packet switching technology for next-generation internet (NGI) …

Optical performance monitoring (OPM) is an important approach to determine the quality of
optical channels within an optical core network without passing data through optoelectronic …

This letter discusses an experimental demonstration of a rapidly switching all-optical packet
routing system with optical-label switching and all-optical label-swapping capabilities. The …

Doppler reflectometry spatial and wavenumber resolution is analysed within the framework
of the linear Born approximation in the slab plasma model. An explicit expression for its …

We present a novel scheme for all-optical label swapping that relies on logic exclusive-OR
(XOR) in an integrated SOA-based Michelson interferometer. The scheme allows simple …
