Abstract
With the growing requirement for advanced speeds and better capacity brought about by speedy data expansion on the Internet, Optical time division multiplexing attracted much attention for its high-speed operations and ability to overcome the electronic bottleneck problems. In this article, 4 × 10 Gb/s WDM/OTDM conversion using supercontinuum (SC) generation at 100 GHz is proposed for 12, 24, and 36 km using SPWRM (Symmetrical pulse width reduction module). HNLF-based multiplexing eliminate the requirement of extra pump sources and provide cost-effective solution. FWM (four wave mixing) demultiplexing using SOA (semiconductor optical amplifiers) is achieved for all the 4 channels with acceptable limits of BER = 10−9 at 24 km.
