Abstract

Synchronization is an important issue for all-optical signal processing in fiber networks. An all-optical clock recovery scheme that tolerates variation in the incoming data rate and locks up in a small fraction of a packet time is essential. All-optical clock recovery relying on nonlinearities in fiber1 and in semiconductor-laser amplifiers2 (SLA) has been demonstrated in a ring geometry. Locking performance and mechanisms have not been characterized in these systems.
