Abstract

This paper introduces the mid-span spectral inversion by four-wave mixing in a commercially available semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) with a length of about 1.5 mm to optical label switching network based on combined frequency shift keying (FSK)-intensiy modulation (IM)/optical label-packet modulation to overcome the dispersion limitation of fiber. The 155 Mb/s-10 Gb/s combined FSK/IM signal is experimentally transmitted over a 100 km standard single mode fiber. 10-10 and 10-9 BER (bit error ratio), or even better, is achieved for the FSK label and IM packet, respectively. The -19 dB power conversion efficiency is obtained for -1 nm wavelength detuning.
