A novel burst-mode all-optical wavelength converter based on gain-clamping structure
National Engineering Laboratory for Next Generation Internet Access System,430074, Wuhan, China A novel gain-clamped wavelength converter (GCWC) is proposed to make the hybrid TDM-WDM PON architecture based on wavelength conversion feasible, and its operation principle is also demonstrated. The power budget of this network is measured to identify the architecture can support 4096 users who share 40Gbit/s accessing capacity on a single trunk fiber. And optical power equalization functionality and burst transparency characteristic of GCWC is experimentally evaluated, and the results show that the GCWC makes burst signals from different transmitters with up to 5 dB dynamic range equalized and is transparency for burst signals.
